With your support, we can achieve anything...

Donate your time...

Your time is more valuable to both us and our program recipients than money. The Franklin Foundation's Volunteer Corps helps the Foundation achieve its goals by assisting with event setup, funding drives, mailings, outreach, and other contributions of time.

 

Members of the Franklin Foundation's Volunteer Corps also participate in community projects, and offer their relevant expertise to help the Foundation complete projects like the installation of computer labs, scientific apparatus, and student tutoring.

 

Members of the Franklin Foundation's Volunteer Corps must receive a rigorous background check and criminal history check for the safety of the Foundation and its recipients/membership. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please submit a resume and your contact information to volunteering@franklinfound.org.

 

We are also in need of leaders for our regional Franklin Scholars program as well as field leaders for our Volunteer Corps. For more information on these opportunities, please visit our Jobs section under Volunteer Opportunities.

 

Donate your support...

Your monetary donations aid the Foundation's programs and services as well as help fund special projects including scholarships, and grants. We accept estate and major gifts, as well as donations made annually, quarterly, monthly, even weekly. Donors at all levels receive our quarterly on-line publication "The Key", which features stories about the Foundation's work, scholarship and award winners, and features rising stars in the scientific, technological, and mathematical fields. All donors additionally receive annually mailed receipts from the Foundation for tax purposes, and all donations to The Franklin Foundation are fully tax deductible.

 

The Director's Club

Individual members of the Director's club donate over $5,000 annually to the Foundation and additionally receive an annual gift from the Foundation, and are also invited to the Foundation's annual banquet, honoring members of the community who help the Foundation through their volunteer efforts, as well as award, grant, and scholarship recipients.

 

The Chairman's Club

Individual members of the Director's club donate over $15,000 annually to the Foundation. Members of the chairman's club receive director's club level benefits, and also enjoy an annual networking breakfast with the Chairman, members of the executive board of directors, and other corporate sponsors and donors.

 

The Founder's Club

Individual members of the Director's club donate over $30,000 annually to the Foundation. Members of the founder's club receive chairman's club level benefits, and become members-at-large of the Foundation's selection committee, allowing them to vote for grant and special scholarship recipients during the annual selection process. Founder's club donors also enjoy additional events throughout the course of the calendar year.
