RECOGNITION PROGRAMMES

All supporters of NIGEL will be recognized by their membership in one of the following special recognition benefactor categories, unless the donor requests to be anonymous. Membership in each category is dependent on the value of the donation.

Benefits in each benefactor category are different, although all donors will receive: a letter of thanks, a charitable tax receipt, a free subscription to NIGEL's Newsletter and invitations to special events. Donors may also elect not to participate in the recognition programme. In such cases, their gift will be considered "anonymous" for public purposes.
