What is a Donor Recognition Tree?
A donor recognition tree is a wall installation that is designed to publicly recognize your donors, funders and supporters. The tree leaves are made at various sizes to represent different levels of sponsorship, and each leaf is typically personalized like a small plaque to recognize each donor’s support. The beauty of a giving tree donor walls is that they’re designed to grow and expand over time, which makes them particularly suitable for ongoing fundraisers and campaigns.
Not only do donor recognition trees look beautiful and inviting, they’re also great for raising funds or capital! For example, a donor tree with 100 leaves and an average donation of $150 will raise $15,000; while a giving tree with 250 leaves and an average donation of $400 can raise $100,000! This makes donor trees an ideal way to raise funds for community centers, schools, hospitals, care facilities, museums, churches, seniors’ homes, synagogues, associations, social housing, and new buildings.
