Tribute Society
The Damien Center launched its Tribute Society on the date of the Center's 20th anniversary, April 29, 2007. This Society, and all those that support it with a donation, will commemorate the Center's 20 years of service and excellence to the Indianapolis community and pay tribute to those we have lost along the way.
The cost to gain membership within this society is $2,000. Existing Society members within the Red Ribbon ($500) and Damien Rose ($1,350) Societies can pay the difference necessary to upgrade to the Tribute Society, i.e. $1,500 or $650.
All Earl Conner ($5,000+) members are automatically included within this Society.
Special one-time benefits for Tribute Society members include:
1. a plaque of appreciation with your name that will be featured permanently at the Damien Center in our Legacy shadow box, and
2. an engraved (of your choice) brick that will be placed at our back entrance along Arsenal Avenue - not at the front entrance steps with the capital campaign bricks.
