Donor Societies | Cornerstone Societies

It honors donors for their loyal and continuous support with a major recognition wall in the student center atrium. It states: “With each gift, comes an ever-growing bond with the college, faculty and students and the knowledge that your generosity is significantly impacting Wayne State College.”

 

The Cornerstone Society was developed to allow the college to properly acknowledge donors as they move to higher categories of giving through the years. Listed below are the members of the Cornerstone Society in their respective level of cumulative giving as of June 30, 2012.
