Galaxy Tributes
|
Perhaps they are not the stars. But rather openings in the heavens where the love of our lost ones pours through And shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. Inspired by an Eskimo legend.
A Galaxy Tribute Fund is created to award special recognition for any individual or significant occasion or event we hold dear to us, whether it is a baptism, marriage, an ‘0’ birthday, a particular medal, certificate or qualification or simply ‘because’. It is a wonderful way to pay tribute to a special person or occasion in your life or theirs and simultaneously benefit Climb. The Tribute Fund can be opened with a minimum donation of £20 and by opening a fund you are committing to raise a minimum of £2,000 of unrestricted funds (see note below) for Climb within 3 years. Many of the donations that are made towards the £2,000 commitment are eligible for gift aid but the £2,000 commitment does not include gift aid donations. In return Climb will send you a Climb Rose when you open the tribute, so you can watch your rose and your Galaxy fund grow together. At the £1,000 milestone, Climb will plant a tree as a tribute to your special person or event. When you have successfully reached the £2,000 goal your tribute will become a ‘star’ named in the galaxy. You will receive a framed ‘star name’ certificate and an astrological chart. If, at the end of the three years you have not reached the £2,000 target, don’t worry, Climb will send you a certificate of completion saying how much you have achieved in the time.
All stars named after your tribute will be in the Andromeda System.
Note...Unrestricted funds are those funds which are not raised for a specific purpose (eg research) and may be allocated at the discretion of the Trustees. |
