Page 2 Become a member of the president’s circle Have you ever wondered how Crowley’s Ridge College is able to pay for improving our current buildings and campus, or add new facilities, or how we pay for new academic and student life programs, or award student scholarships? The short answer is YOU. We could not pay for all these needed areas without individuals, churches, foundations, businesses, and other friends who provide annual gifts. The President’s Circle annual gift program is one of the ways that CRC is trying to raise money for these areas. Any donor that provides an annual gift or gifts totaling $1,000 or Richard Johnson more annually is recognized in The President’s Circle. VP for Advancement

Members of The President’s Circle receive the following benefits:  Annual President’s Circle ID membership card  Annual President’s Circle ID membership card provides free admission for two persons to all CRC collegiate home games  Being kept informed how your charitable gift impacts the lives of CRC students  Receive occasional updates by mail and e-mail regarding CRC’s achievements and future plans, made possible by your support  An invitation to join CRC’s President, staff, and board members for a private dinner every few years  You will be included in a special President’s Circle Honor Roll, listing the names only, in the spring edition of the CRC Insider (unless you request not to be listed)

As you will see on this page http://crc.edu/index.php/advancing-crc/crc-funding-needs, CRC has needs related to new facilities, technology, improving the interior of the gym, improving exterior of existing dorms, equipment and classroom needs that cost a tremendous amount of money. We currently have approximately 200 members of The President’s Circle. Imagine what we could do with 1,000 members. We could accomplish every single item listed at the CRC Funding Needs link! Some members choose to give their $1,000 or more in monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual installments; others give a one-time gift each year.
