The Committee recognizes the need for large donors from the membership to achieve its goals. As such, the Committee has a preliminary indication of the designation that will be awarded to donors at the following levels:

The determined designations will confer on the donors certain awards and naming rights, with preference given first to the highest donor then early donors. The table above shows rooms or areas of the new house as examples of what can be named after an individual or designated class for their donation. Note that class gifts will only be eligible to receive naming rights at or above the Philbrick, Hobart, Nash Club. The gifts in the right column of the table are additional means by which to reward those donors that come to the aid of Tri-Kap in her hour of need. Personal portraits of Benefactors and Lifetime Benefactors will be hung in the GOTE room. A large plaque recognizing donors at or above the Philbrick, Hobart, Nash Club will be placed prominently in the new house. A smaller plaque will recognize donors in the Judge Amos Blandon and Phil McGuinnis Clubs. Bricks engraved with donor names will be used to build the new walkway to the house, which will be another lasting means to recognize donors.

The Committee is prepared to accept donations either immediately or over a ten-year horizon. Any donations exceeding this time length will be considered individually.

The Committee is prepared to accept loans from interested investors as well. At this time, the Committee is ready to accept proposals from individual investors. However, as a guiding principle, the Committee will seek to structure such loans over a 25 year time period, with interest rates at or near 3%. Any loan will be subordinate to that offered by the College. The Committee will be willing to individually structure, without regards to these conditions, any loan which offers to refinance the Society’s debt commitments to the College. Any loans secured by a portion of future payments on newly renovated or created rooms would also be accepted. Any loans to the Society may or may not be eligible for naming rights or any other future gift considerations.
