Donor Recognition Information

From the university's inception, donors have played a vital role in UAH's emergence as a prestigious institution that provides programs of the highest quality. Their leadership support advances the university's mission of education, research, and service.

Membership in The President's Council is accorded to individuals, corporations, foundations, and others that have made gifts to the UAH Foundation, UAH, the UAH Eminent Scholar Foundation, or the UAH Alumni Association.

Active membership includes all donors whose gifts totaled $1,000 or more during the fiscal year. Members are listed in gift categories. Life membership recognizes donors who have made cumulative lifetime gifts of $25,000 or more. Many Active members also are listed in the Life category due to the level of their cumulative gifts through the years.

Each year, members of The President's Council come together in pursuit of a common cause, and explore opportunities for greater involvement in the life and mission of the university.

Council members are an important part of the UAH family. As such, they receive invitations to special campus events, recognition certificates, and special communications from the President. Members also qualify for reserved, low-numbered UAH license plates, with proceeds supporting student scholarships.

Most importantly, participation in The President's Council helps ensure the bright future of this remarkable university.

Membership in The University Circle is accorded to donors who contributed less than $1,000 during the 2000 Fiscal Year.

Pledges do not qualify for membership in any category, nor do revocable testamentary gifts (will provisions, et al.). Irrevocable gifts (trusts, annuities, et al.) do qualify for membership and are credited at face value.

Life insurance is credited at the present (cash surrender) value. For recognition purposes, corporate matching gifts are credited both to the corporation and the individual donor initiating the match.
