A donor recognition program has been developed to thank those who contribute to the Career and Technical Education Support Fund each year. The following award levels will be used:

Bronze	$25 and above
Silver	$50 and above
Gold	$100 and above
Platinum	$250 and above
Diamond	$500 and above
Titanium	$1000 and above

The donor recognition program will operate on a calendar year basis, with award level totals starting anew each year. For example, someone making a $50 donation at the 2007 National Policy Seminar and a $50 contribution at the 2007 Convention would be recognized as a Gold donor for the 2007 year, but would have to donate that same total again in 2008 to maintain the Gold donor status and be recognized in 2008. The National Policy Seminar serves as the official kick-off to the year’s campaign, and other fundraising activities will be held at state, regional, and national meetings throughout each year.

Recognition

Throughout the year, donors at each level of giving will be published on the ACTE website. These lists will also be publicly displayed at the annual ACTE Convention and published in Techniques Magazine at the end of the year. Donors reaching each level of giving will be given corresponding ribbons to wear at the National Policy Seminar and Convention. Donors reaching the Diamond and Titanium levels will also receive special recognition and awards. All donors reaching one of the award levels will receive a thank-you letter in January containing the total amount donated during the preceding year and the level of giving reached.
