Here’s how the bonus points work:
For every dollar of a pledge or outright gift paid in full by June 29th, the donor will receive .05 bonus points of the total points accumulated by the pledge amount paid. For partialpledge payments a donor will receive .03 bonus points of the total points accumulated by the donation amount. Below are a few helpful examples on how to calculate the bonus points.
Example 1: Donor pledged $1,000 to an unrestricted fund (Husky Excellence Fund or Husky Annual Scholarship Fund) for the 2018-19 annual fund year and paid their entire $1,000 pledge before June 29th, they will receive 50 points (5 points for every $100) + 2.5 bonus points (.05 bonus points x 50 points earned) = 52.50 total points.
Example 2: Donor pledged $1,000 to an unrestricted fund for the 2018-19 annual fund year and pays $500 of their $1,000 pledge before June 29th, the donor receives 50 points (5 points for every $100) + .75 bonus points (.03 bonus points x 25 points earned from paying $500 before June 29th) = 50.75 total points.
Example 3: Donor pledged $1,000 to a restricted fund (sport-specific, capital projects, endowments, etc.) for the 2018-19 annual fund year and paid their entire $1,000 pledge before June 29th, they will receive 20 points (2 points for every $100) + 1 bonus point (.05 bonus points x 20 points earned) = 21 total points.
Example 4: Donor pledged $1,000 to a restricted fund for the 2018-19 annual fund year and paid $500 of their $1,000 pledge before June 29th, the donor receives 20 points (2 points for every $100) + .3 bonus points (.03 bonus points x 10 points earned from paying $500 before June 29th) = 20.30 total points.
Example 5: Donor pledged $1,000 to the Husky Athletic Fund and waived all athletic priority seating points and other related benefits associated with a gift, the donor account will receive 0 priority points for 2018-19 giving year.
