Giving Levels
What giving levels are right for our community?- Give $10, $20 or $100 online
- Buy a $150 ticket to an annual gala
- Answer a mail appeal for $100 or $500 to support a scholarship or annual fund
- Join with 5 or 10 lead donors, each giving $10,000, to become a founder in a pooled fund
- Set up a personal advised fund of $5,000 or more
These are just some of the ways that donors invest in racial, ethnic and tribal funds and foundations. There is no one school of thought about how – and at what level – donors can participate. Ultimately, the options you choose will reflect your understanding of your community’s interests, their giving motives and habits, and the kind of structure you have in place. Flexibility and creativity can be tremendous assets in this work!
