Giving Societies
It is with deep appreciation that Westminster College recognizes our most loyal and generous benefactors through annual and lifetime giving societies.
Annual Giving Societies
The President's Club is Westminster's most prestigious annual recognition club for alumni, parents and friends. The Club was established to recognize those individuals who provide leadership support to the College on an annual basis in the amount of $1,200 or more. Young Alumni membership in the President’s Club, for alumni who have graduated within 1 to 6 years begins at $300 and graduates within 7 to 12 years begins at $600.
The True Blue Society recognizes supporters who have made gifts to the College for 10 or more consecutive years. This society recognizes the importance of long-term loyalty and commitment to supporting the Westminster experience.
Lifetime Giving Societies
The Breakthrough Society was established in 2018 upon the occasion of the College's first alumnus reaching the milestone giving achievement of $5 million during their lifetime. This society celebrates the unparalleled support of those most esteemed donors whose generosity makes a transformational difference in the life of Westminster College.
This society was created to honor those whose lifetime giving to the College meets or exceeds $1 million. This distinguished society is comprised of those who have invested the most in the continued growth and prosperity of Westminster College.
The Chancellor's Circle was established in the spring of 2016 to provide an avenue for dedicated alumni and friends to provide immediate support to President Fletch Lamkin and the key priorities of the Westminster Initiative campaign. Donors become members of the Chancellor's Circle with a gift commitment of $500,000 in unrestricted support. The gift commitment can be fulfilled over a period of up to three installments over the course of two years.
