CSU-Pueblo Foundation announces new giving levels
Release Date: March 17, 2015
PUEBLO – The CSU-Pueblo Foundation hosted the President’s Club Soiree last month in an effort to thank generous supporters to CSU-Pueblo. The 2015 Soirée included the formation and announcement of three new giving levels to the President’s Leadership Circle.
The President’s Club Soiree is an annual event that allows the CSU-Pueblo President and the CSU-Pueblo Foundation Board of Directors to recognize and thank donors for their support of the University. Invitees to the Soiree include members of the President’s Club, donors who gave at least $1,000 in the previous calendar year, and The President’s Club Leadership Circle donors who have reached a new level based on their lifetime giving.
The President’s Leadership Circle previously recognized lifetime giving up to the $500,000 level. However, because of the generosity of donors over the past several years, especially to the “On the Move Campaign,” the Foundation adapted a new lifetime giving level into the President’s Leadership Circle – The Distinguished Presidential level, which recognizes donors who have given more than $1,000,000 in their lifetime to CSU-Pueblo. Eleven individuals and/or organizations were honored at this level:
|
Carpet Direct Corp. |
Hasan Family Foundation |
Additionally, donors were recognized for their loyalty in giving to CSU-Pueblo. The President’s Leadership Circle adapted new loyalty giving levels, which includes University Loyal Fellow for donors who have given for 10+ years consecutively and Distinguished Loyal Fellow, which recognizes donors who have given for 20+ years consecutively.
University Loyal Fellows (10+) included 39 individuals/organizations:
|
ABC Bank |
Trisha Macias |
Distinguished Loyal Fellows (20+) recognized 28 individuals/organizations:
|
Judy Baca |
McPherson, Breyfogle, Daveline & Goodrich PC |
