Donor Choice

Give to BHS and your chapter, district, or brigade - one gift, split any way you choose

Donor Choice lets you support BHS and your chapter, district, or brigade at the same time - with one gift, split any way you choose. Every BHS chapter, district, and brigade has its own giving page on our platform. Find yours, decide how to divide your gift, and give. They receive their portion on a monthly basis. BHS handles everything in between. It is that simple.

Everything you loved - and then some

What members have always valued about Donor Choice was never the mechanics. It was the feeling that a gift could be local AND organizational, personal AND meaningful at scale. The new Donor Choice keeps that feeling and adds to it: you can now designate any percentage to your chapter (not just 30%), every chapter has its own branded campaign page, reporting is automated and transparent rather than manual, and gifts are disbursed monthly rather than on a six-month lag.

Key Policy Points

No designation cap

Designate anywhere from 0 to 100% of your gift to your chapter - it is entirely your call.

Donor benefits on your full gift

BHS donor-recognition benefits are calculated on your full gift amount after a minimum gift of $100 to Ambassador of Song or $1,000 to President's Council.

Monthly disbursement

Chapters receive their designated funds on a monthly cycle - within 30 days of each month's close.

No minimum disbursement

All designated funds are distributed to chapters, regardless of amount.

A page for every chapter

Every interested, eligible chapter can have its own campaign page on the BHS giving platform.

Eligibility

Any member or supporter giving through the BHS platform; all 650 eligible chapters and other subsidiaries.

How to Get Started

Every eligible BHS chapter, district, and subsidiary can request a dedicated campaign page on the BHS giving platform. Onboarding is triggered when a donor searches for your chapter, or when a chapter leader reaches out directly. Once requested, your page goes live within five business days.
