Recognizing Donors
Foundation Stars Program
The Foundation Stars program was initially created to honor a retiree’s years of dedicated service to the field of college health. The program has since been expanded to include the option of honoring anyone who has made a contribution to college health. A group of individuals may also combine their contributions to make a larger gift in honor of a colleague. Want to honor a colleague who has retired or who goes above and beyond? Email ACHF@acha.org to honor a Foundation Star.
Partners for Wellness!
ACHF works to create and strengthen mutually beneficial relationships with for-profit entities interested in advancing the health of students through their college years and beyond. The ACHF “Partners for Wellness” makes it possible for corporations to invest in college students through the allocation of their charitable contributions to the Foundation in the form of sustaining grant funding and other opportunities to support research, educational programs, and special projects promoting college health. All for-profit entities working with and/or supporting college health are eligible to become members of this group with a minimum donation. We invite you to join us: “Partners for Wellness — Educating, Supporting and Healing.”

Foundation Builders
ACHF donors are making a true impact on college health by lending their financial support to fund innovative ideas. ACHF is very grateful to these donors who have made meaningful contributions to help build a foundation for the future of college health.
The Foundation Builders Program recognizes those donors whose generous contributions have built the American College Health Foundation since its founding in 1989.

Legacy Honor Roll
We are grateful to a group of very special donors who made significant contributions to Campaign 2011 to help us reach our goal. In recognition of their generous support, these donors are now part of the “Legacy Honor Roll” that lists the names of those who gave $10,000 or more to the campaign. Their names are engraved on a permanent commemorative plaque, which graces the halls of the ACHA national office, and is displayed at annual meetings. Thank you to all of our Legacy Honor Roll donors!
ACHF Donor Privacy Policy:
All information concerning donors or prospective donors, including their names, addresses, and telephone numbers, the names of their beneficiaries, the amount of their gift, etc., shall be kept strictly confidential by the staff of the American College Health Foundation (ACHF) and members of its Board of Directors unless permission is obtained from the donor to release such information.
The exception to the above policy will be that, unless otherwise instructed by the donor, the names of those persons and organizations who have contributed to ACHF will automatically be included in a list of donors to be on display at ACHA annual meetings and on the ACHF webpage. Contribution amounts will not be specified but donor names will be grouped in various giving categories.
