Acknowledgement in the published volumes
We greatly appreciate and recognize every supporter in the front of the books, and sometimes friends ask how that print acknowledgement works. Personal donations are essential, even during production, so you can help with both Volumes Four and Five. Thank you!
History of Cartography Project giving categories are listed below. To appear in or to move to a higher category for Volume Four:
- Give or pledge before September 2018.
- Make a gift of any amount—we will put it to good use.
- Make a gift that moves the total of any previous contributions across a category threshold.
- Contact us to set up a pledge that includes support for Volume Four.
Beth Freundlich in the Madison office can help (more details below).
Giving Categories
Group recognition is generally determined by total gifts sent during the period we focused on a specific volume. However, those who have been able to donate $5,000 or more since the Project began are acknowledged in one of the lifetime supporter categories and are listed in all future publications.
