Scholarship Recognition Categories

In 2002, the Chicago Alumni Chapter Board of Directors approved a recognition category for CAC members and “friends of the CAC” whose cumulative donations to the various Chicago Alumni Chapter Scholarship Programs had reached the $1,000.00 level. In 2014, the Chicago Alumni Chapter board agreed to recognize multiple different levels of giving to CAC scholarships.

How do I qualify for these recognitions?

The usual requirements for making donations still apply: donations must be in the amount of $25 or more ($100 or more is suggested) to one or both of the CAC Scholarships, and must not be general (unrestricted) donations to the DSP Leadership Foundation. When your donations reach a cumulative amount of $500.00 we will let you know that we wish to honor you for your generosity. There is no time period in which you need to reach the $500.00 amount.

Your checks for $25 or more ($100 or more is suggested) should still be payable to the DSP Leadership Foundation. Be sure to specify which CAC scholarship (or both depending on the amount of your donation) you wish your donation to be applied to. If you wish to know how close you are to $500.00 just email the CAC Scholarship Chair. You can also make these donations online at the National website.  In the “Comments” box on the online donation form specify which CAC Scholarship(s) you wish your donations to be applied to. DO NOT indicate “in memory of” or “in honor of” in this box as these are special categories that are not CAC Scholarships!
