What is the Wanda Frey Joiner Development Fund?
The Wanda Frey Joiner Development Fund, named in honor of Quota's founder, supports Quota's worldwide development and growth efforts. Donations ensure that Quota will continue to enrich and serve Quota communities and our world in these ways: launching new clubs, strengthening existing clubs, and strategic planning.

What is the minimum Founder donation?
The minimum Founder donation is $1,000. Donations are accepted in Australian, Canadian, New Zealand, and United States currencies. And for each additional $1,000 donation, we will add one "star" to your Founder affiliation plus one diamond to your gold Founder pin. Founder "Stars" can be added at the time of your original donation or at any time in the future. To view a list of current Founder donors and the number of stars they have added, click here*.

Do you offer a Founder donation payment plan?
Yes. We offer two options:

Option 1: If you would like to become a Founder immediately, you can complete our Founder pledge form and receive immediate recognition as a new Founder. This plan requires consecutive monthly pledge payments ($100 per month minimum) that Quota International can deduct from your credit card or you can mail as a check. The pledge form is located on the Wanda Frey Joiner Founder sign-up form. To print a copy that you can complete and mail with your initial donation of $100 or more, click here. You can also use this program to add "Stars" to your existing Founder membership.

Option 2: The second option Quota International offers is our Founders Stepping Stones program, whereby you can make Founder donations at your own pace over one or multiple years in any amount you wish. We will keep a record of your Founder account, and when you reach the minimum $1,000 donation level, you will receive Founder status and all benefits, including the exquisite gold Founder pin. You can also use this program to add "Stars" to your existing Founder membership. There is no time limit to this program, and you will receive quarterly account statements.

Are Founder donations deductible for tax purposes in the United States?
Yes. The Wanda Frey Joiner Development Fund affiliated with Quota International, Inc., is designated a 501(c)(3) organization. Donations are tax deductible as charitable contributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes. (Please note that donations made to the We Share Foundation's Benefactor's Circle are also tax deductible in the United States. To learn more, click here.)

What benefits do I receive as a Founder?
When you join the Founder program, you will receive affiliation in the Founder network for life. In addition, you will receive:

• The exquisite gold Founder pin. Your pin will contain one diamond for each additional "star" you may wish to add.
  
  
• An invitation to attend the President's Appreciation Reception held at convention where you will be presented with the Founder certificate and pin. (If you are unable to attend convention, you will be presented with your pin and certificate at your district conference.)
  
  
• Acknowledgement during the convention general session.
  
  
• The listing of your name on the prestigious honor roll of Founders published in the convention notebook and the annual Quotarian magazine.
  
  
• Inclusion in the permanent collection of Founder photographs displayed on the Quota International Web Site.

Can clubs become Founders?
Yes, clubs are encouraged to honor their Quota affiliation by joining the Quota Founder network.

Can I make a fellow Quota member a Founder?
Yes, individual members and clubs both enjoy surprising a special Quota member with this honor.

Can I make a Founder donation in honor or memory of another person?
Absolutely. You are listed as the Founder and receive all benefits if your special individual is not a Quota member. If he or she is a Quota member, they are listed as the Founder and receive benefits.
