The Role Of Donor Recognition Walls

By Iva Cannon


Over the years, there has been increased funding by donors to construct various structures that are meant to benefit the people in the society. These structures include school buildings, hospitals, churches, community places and many more. It is important to encrypt the name of the well-wishers who played a major role in ensuring the projects were well established. This makes the use of donor recognition walls very essential in display of these names.

Numerous designs have been used to put on display the useful information regarding the people who have contributed greatly to the completion of the project. This information can be different depending on the organizational management. However, some information is common on each structure. The data regarding the name of the entities and the day the building was officially opened must be indicated on this facility.

In the old architecture, the blocks were made from large stones and a written piece of brass metal was mounted on the stone to indicate the relevant data. In the current world, the use of stones has been replaced by use of LCD screens and projectors on which the data is being put up for display. They are fitted on strategic points within the building that enhance viewing by many people.

Some of the necessary information regarding the financiers is put for display on these features. This information includes the logo and motto of the organizations which is very specific to each group. The display has been made more advanced with incorporation of images and some descriptive information is written to make it easy to comprehend.

The amount of data to be posted determines the space it will occupy on a certain block. In places where detailed data and use of large images is important, large parts are selected to ensure all the data is well accommodated. Small data can be painted at smaller portions on the wall where they are clearly seen.

The costs incurred in putting up these structures are quite low and this makes it affordable by the relevant organizations. Painting on smaller walls is quite cheap as compared to painting on larger blocks. The cost increases with the complexity of designs that the organizations wants to put up to display the relevant data.

The display units should be set up at points that are easily seen by the people visiting the building that was build using donors support. They can be put at the entrance points to the building or at the reception offices where many people pass through. In some special cases they can be cemented at a strategic point near the house to ensure visibility by people visiting the place at any time. This ensures that the information regarding the intentions of the group can reach a wide population as possible.

The use of these platforms has increased the awareness of such organizations to a majority of people thus promoting their reputation. They also have an aesthetic beauty impact on the buildings on which they are used. It is therefore recommendable to increase the use of these donor walls.
