Founders Circle Recognition

The Founders Circle was designed to recognize individuals, and families that make deferred gifts to the French Creek Council Endowment Fund. 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:

l Bequest in a will or codicil.

l Charitable Remainder Trust.

l Gift Annuity or BSA Pooled Income Fund.

l Life Insurance.

l Retirement Plan / IRA designation

l Other deferred gifts approved by the French Creek 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 minimum 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.
