The
Eagle Club
Sustaining
Gifts for Research and Education
I'll
bet most of you didn't know that since our inception we've raised
$12 million through capital campaigning, and I'll bet even more
that you don't know just 80 corporations and individuals donated
the funds! Literally a few have done much to benefit so many
- and it's time for that to change.
Those who have given - all 80 - will be asked to continue to give
in substantially lesser amounts, but for the foundation to truly
have legs, we must have the broad based support of thousands of
donors. So I've recommended to the EREF board a daunting task
-- to get sustaining support from a few thousand people who make
their living in the waste service industry and induct them as EREF's
first members of its annual sustaining support level, the "Eagle
Club".
Every year we spend about $1.2 to $1.5 million on projects and another
$250,000 each year or so on operating expenses, but our small portfolio
does not generate the interest needed to cover these costs.
So, with the help of the many we would like to receive commitments
from:
100
donors giving $1,000 per year
500
donors giving $500 per year
1,000
donors giving $100 per year
2,000
donors giving $50 or less per year
If you consider our work important, have a heart - join the Eagle
Club and make a sustaining contribution every year at one of the
scales shown above. Click HERE
for a downloadable donation form. Your contribution will give
the foundation legs and the opportunity to climb to new heights
in our effort to develop environmental solutions for the future.
Many thanks!
