75th Anniversary Diamond Donors
Leave a Lasting Legacy for the Next 75 Years
With the incredible support of our community, we are proud to celebrate a milestone – our 75th Anniversary! Over the decades, our donors have helped us save countless lives, and we are deeply grateful for your unwavering support. As we reflect on our journey, we are excited to share a new opportunity for you to leave a lasting legacy as part of our 75th Anniversary Diamond Donor Program.
Diamond Donors
Midcoast Humane’s Diamond Donor program honors the generosity of our supporters making a profound impact on our mission to care for and protect the animals in our charge. Every year, your gifts account for over half of our budget. We rely on them to repair or replace things when they break, to purchase lifesaving medical supplies, and even to provide enrichment that improves the quality of life for the pets in our care. Your support is crucial in every facet of what we do, and together, we can ensure that Midcoast Humane continues to thrive for many years to come.
Become a Diamond Donor
In recognition of this hallmark year, we are introducing a special Diamond Donor recognition wall that will be displayed in our lobby. The wall will feature engraved art, featuring a symbolic diamond motif to honor the contributions of our sustaining donors. We invite you to be part of this meaningful tribute by contributing at one of the following Diamond Donor levels:
- Bronze: $7,500 – $24,999
- Sterling: $25,000 – $74,999
- Gold: $75,000 – $199,999
- Platinum: $200,000 – $499,000
Each donor’s name will be permanently inscribed on a plaque accompanying the wall art, ensuring that your legacy of compassion is honored for generations to come.
A Special Thank You to Our First Diamond Donors
We are thrilled to announce our first Platinum Diamond Donors, who have collectively pledged $450,000, and our first Gold Diamond Donors, who, together, have pledged $250,000! Their generosity sets the stage for others, and we are deeply grateful for their incredible support.
