Leadership Society

Leadership matters.
Generosity at the leadership giving level ($1,000 or more annually) changes lives
for the better. Not quick fixes, but lasting change. The high school drop out
that earns their GED, the five-year-olds that are ready for school, the seniors
that have access to support services – all receive help that makes a difference
because of this level of generosity.
Commitment to the community demonstrated by a gift at the leadership level sets
an example of caring that others will emulate. The giving history is proof: a steady
increase every year in leadership giving shows the collective power of a single
gift combined with others to magnify the impact. In 2007-20087, leadership giving
comprised 33% of the entire annual campaign.
The purpose of the General Daniel Morgan Society is to recognize and encourage individuals to higher levels of philanthropic
investment in their community (more than $1,000).
Founded in 1986, the General Daniel Morgan Society is affiliated with both the
Palmetto Society (the South Carolina leadership giving society) and the Tocqueville
Society (the national leadership giving society recognizing members who give $10,000
or more to their local United Way).
The Morgan Award
The Morgan Award is presented each year to an individual that exemplifies “a caring spirit." Read about this year's winner. |
