 | BHS Membership Levels Changing | | On January 1, 2010, the lifetime gift level for enrollment in the Bascom Hill Society (BHS) will change, for the first time in 17 years.
The new levels for membership will be $50,000 for lifetime gifts and pledges and $100,000 for deferred gifts. All BHS members enrolled or qualified before January 2010 will be grandfathered. The level to become a BHS Associate member will increase to $5,000 per household annually.
Gifts for preferential athletic seating will no longer be counted toward BHS Associate membership. They will, however, continue to be counted toward cumulative gift totals for lifetime BHS enrollment. |
