Leadership Giving

An excellent way to plan your giving for the year is to consider giving at a Leadership Level.  Leadership Giving is empowering for donors and a solid foundation for nonprofit organizations.

Leadership Giving has been designed so that every employee can have the opportunity to join one of the Leadership Giving Levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum. It is based not on total dollars but on the equivelant of an hour of pay. In fact, more than 50% of donors give at a leadership level!

As a show of appreciation, Leadership Givers are acknowledged at different levels. Please submit your donation form as early as possible as supplies are limited.

Bronze = 1 hour or more of pay per month Black reusable grocery bag with Sharing Hope logo

Silver = 2 hours or more of pay per month Red 20 oz. insulated iced beverage mug with reusable straw - BPA free

Gold = 3 hours or more of pay per month Picture frame with digital clock, date, temperature display

Platinum = 4 hours or more of pay per month Black canvas brief/laptop bag with Sharing Hope logo

These levels can be achieved through any combination of payroll deduction, time donation, or direct check.

Use this easy example:

Divide total annual donation (check and payroll combined) by hourly rate of pay. This result plus any hours of time donated determines leadership level:

For example, if hourly rate of pay is $20.00 an hour:

$60 direct check + $120 payroll donation    = 9 
            $20.00 (hourly rate of pay)

9 (from above) + 4 hours of time donated = 13 (more than one hour per month/ 12 hours a year) Bronze level!

On Section 3 of the donation form, check your leadership level and whether you would like to accept or decline your leadership gift.

Thank you so much for considering a gift at these levels!
