Cumulative Recognition Changes Made
On March 31, we made the biggest change to our cumulative recognition program since 2001—we discontinued the three cumulative recognition levels below $1,000. The change aligns our recognition programs with our fundraising priorities and help us better control costs. Donors had until March 31 to attain one of these levels. The changes are in effect as of April 1, 2021. In the next few months, we will mail the recognition pieces for Participating Member, Sustaining Member and Distinguished Member for the last time.

Though the lowest levels of cumulative recognition are gone, other recognition programs are growing. We are proud to offer a robust, accessible recognition program for our individual donors. Our Annual Recognition program, Foundation Fellowship, recognizes donors for their yearly contributions to the Foundation. You can learn more here. More and more donors are earning Fidelity Club pins, for example, upon making their 12th gift through our monthly giving program. Joining the Fidelity Club costs as little as $60 per year—or about one fancy coffee or value meal per month.
