Founders Circle
The
Founders Circle was designed to recognize individuals, and
families that make deferred gifts to local council endowment
funds. Donors are recognized for gift commitments
with a minimum value of $100,000. The donor qualifies
for the membership in the Founders Circle with gifts through:
- Bequest in a will or codicil
- Charitable Remainder Trust
- Gift Annuity or BSA Pooled Income Fund
- Life Insurance
- Retirement Plan/IRA designation
- Other deferred gifts approved by the local council
There are four levels of membership in the Founders Circle:
Bronze $100,000 minimum gift commitment
Silver $250,000 minimum gift commitment
Gold $500,000 minimum gift commitment
Platinum $1,000,000 min. gift commitment
The early founders of the BSA had the vision and commitment
to make Scouting the number one values based youth organization
in the world. In that spirit, we honor the modern
day visionaries who qualify for the Founders Circle in their
commitment to perpetuate the visions and beliefs of those
founders.
