Cornerstone Society
The Cornerstone Society recognizes philanthropic leaders in Greensboro who generously contribute $1,000 to $9,999 to United Way's annual campaign. Last year Cornerstone Society campaign members represented almost 23% of total campaign contributions under the leadership of Diane Conterno, Advanced Direct and Steve Branch, Greensboro Merchants Association.
Cornerstone Society members are the "gems" of the Greater Greensboro community and are represented by four levels of Cornerstone Society giving on an annual basis.
| Diamond Donors | $7,500-$9,999 |
| Emerald Donors | $5,000-$7,499 |
| Ruby Donors | $2,500-$4,999 |
| Sapphire Donors | $1,000-$2,499 |
Consider giving jointly with another member of your household for a combined gift of $1,000 or more.
