Frequently Asked Questions
How can I make a donation to the Society?
Who is the point of contact for the Society should I have any questions?
Please contact dbruce@efworld.org with questions or for more details on the Fellows Giving Society.
Once I donate to the Fellows Giving Society, do I have to renew yearly?
Yes, the Fellows Giving Society is made up of Fellows who donate yearly. The goal is to develop a base of sustainable donors who choose to support EF because of the profound impact the organization has made on their life and the broader community. Those who make a multi-year gift will be recognized each year that they have committed to donate.
Can non-Fellows become members of the Fellows Giving Society?
No, the Fellows Giving Society is exclusively for Fellows. Benefits are designed specifically for Fellows to recognize and celebrate them.
I would like my gift to remain Anonymous. Is that ok?
Yes, of course. EF wants to ensure that you have the recognition you want. Please indicate on your pledge form if you wish to remain anonymous.
My company offers a matching gift program. Can my gift be matched?
Yes, we welcome matching gifts. Please indicate on your pledge form if your gift will be matched.
Can someone make a gift in my honor?
Yes, please indicate on your pledge form if an organization or another individual will be making a gift in your honor.
Can my country chapter or fellowship class make a group gift to receive Founding Fellow recognition?
The Fellows Giving Society is for individual Fellows. A group gift does not qualify a chapter, fellowship class or its members for Founding Fellow recognition.
We greatly appreciate the generosity of chapters and fellowship classes. There will be a separate opportunity to give as a group next year. In late 2027, EF will invite country chapters to make collective gifts to celebrate EF’s 75th anniversary in 2028.
