Giving Societies
Membership in Stonehill's Giving Societies is open to all individuals: alumni, parents, trustees, faculty, staff and friends of the College. Membership is based on gifts made to the Annual Fund during the College's fiscal year, July 1 through June 30 and is renewable each year.
President's Council
The President's Council is Stonehill's premier giving society. President's Council gifts are the foundation of voluntary support and provide a reliable source of funding for some of our most critical needs: scholarships, new educational initiatives and outstanding facilities. Members of the Council invest in the future of the College by making a commitment at one of the membership levels. These funds can be unrestricted, through the Annual Fund, or can be directed to a specific area of interest. The leadership support of the President's Council is crucial to the College's success.
The President's Council is comprised of four levels:
Founder - gifts of $10,000 or more
Patron - gifts of $5,000 to $9,999
Benefactor - gifts of $2,500 to $4,999
Member - gifts of $1,000 to $2,499
GOLD - gifts of $500 and above
*In order to encourage recent graduates to consider joining the President's Council, GOLD (Graduates Of the Last Decade) membership is offered to those who have graduated from the College within the past ten years and who make annual gifts of at least $500.
