Cast Bronze Plaques and Outdoor Donor Displays
Cast Bronze Plaques and Outdoor Donor Displays solve unique challenges brought by Mother Nature. Cast bronze is made to last. Sun, rain, snow and ice all contribute to shorten the life of typical outdoor donor recognition walls. By using durable materials, we can guarantee a beautiful and creative display. Cast Bronze plaques are the preferred option for outdoor donor recognition. They weather through sun and ice, and last a lifetime. They are custom made, so they can be any size. Garden stakes, blind mounts and direct mounts are all options for installation. Corian is another great option for outdoor displays. It lasts through the elements and is easy to etch and customize.
These are some common sizes of standard cast bronze donor plaques using just standard text. We can make them in almost any size that you wish, so feel free to reach out to us and request more infomation. All plaque prices include design assistance, a virtual rendering, shipping, a template for mounting and final proof approval. Lead time is about 4 weeks. All of these plaques are etched cast bronze. Logos and photos are not included in this cost. Garden stakes are additional. Please talk to us about your mounting requirements. These serve to give you an idea of what the cost is for a lifetime guaranteed cast bronze plaque.

Donor Walls are commonly used in non profit areas to showcase large numbers of donors. These may be as few as a dozen, or as many as several thousand. Donor recognition is a common component in the stewardship programs of hospitals, university foundations and civic projects. The materials used to make these masterpieces varies all over the place. Wood, glass, lucite and other composite materials are all used depending on the environment and design considerations. We help with design and installation, so that you don't have to worry.
Donor Recognition leads to strong and lasting relationships with your organization. Start looking at recognition through the eyes of the donor, and see that you make it special, meaningful, and unique to each contributing individual or group of individuals.

As the community evolves, so does Health and Human Services. The artifacts tell their story, mounted between sheets of acrylic and held off the wall with silver standoffs.
Interactive Donor Recognition
Digital Donor Recognition Displays use a touch screen interactive monitor to allow the visitor to search long lists of donors, watch videos of donors talking about philanthropy in action, and can highlight donor profiles. These lists of donors can be updated from the donor relations office at any time.
Why choose an interactive donor recognition wall? RCB Digital Donor Displays will impress your donors and attract, motivate, inform, and inspire your donors to keep coming back. A good donor recognition wall should be a key component in your marketing campaign. While we certainly can make beautiful traditional donor walls highlighting all of your donors, why not take it to the next level and let your key donors tell their story in their own words?
We can add an interactive flat screen display to your donor wall. Touch screen control buttons can activate the presentation by a donor, who in his own words will explain why the donation was important to him and what the organization was able to do as a result. We use the latest in touch screen technology, so all a visitor has to do is touch the screen by a donor image and the screen will come to life and tell the story. A very strong way to say thanks, and get your marketing message out there. We can also use smaller monitors, in a multiple display, with a monitor for each donor.
A typical aspect of Interactive Donor Recognition is an annual subscription service that is part of the package. The subscription is similar to hosting a website in cost. This ensures that your site is easy and economical to update and add donor names, as well as video and photos. Your imagination is unlimited, so is your donor wall! From consultation, to design, to fabrication, to installation, RCB Donor Recognition is a one stop shop for all your donor recognition needs.
Augustana College: A Legacy of Giving This digital interactive display is uniquely Augustana, designed from the ground up to reflect their mission. Philanthropy is an important part of the college, from new students to alumni. The hardscape is awesome! It has a film on the back of the glass, showing a bucolic scene from campus life. The inside is back lit, so it appears to glow from within. By incorporating elements from the organization's history or current mission into the design and theme of the video, it creates a sense of community with your donors. Think about your objectives in creating the program in the first place, and look at how they form and fit into the final design. Use this to differentiate your digital display from all others.
Convent Avenue Baptist Church in the Bronx uses an interactive digital display to recognize donors to the elevator addition to the church, and also to annual giving.
