Consider Reaching Your Desired Level By Joining A CAPE Program Club!
By signing up for a recurring donation directly to the CAPE program of your choice, you’re eligible for an extra bonus incentive*!
Click your desired program club icon below.
Enter a dollar amount for your recurring gift.
Under Make Your Gift Recurring, select Monthly, Quarterly, or Annually.
In addition to your perks listed above, you’ll also receive an enamel pin with the club icon (pictured below)!
*To receive incentive, must register for recurring donations of at least $10/month (or $30/quarter or $120/year). Except for recent Cavalier Age-Outs! If you aged out of The Cavaliers within the past 3 seasons, join The Cavaliers Club at the discounted rate of $4+ per month to receive your pin. Age-out status will be verified.
Donations made between January 1st, 2023 and September 30th, 2024 are used to determine your initial Giving Machine recognition level. Soon, we’ll be sharing personalized communications notifying you of your current level. There is still time to reach your desired 2025 level with contributions made before January 1st!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time frame that these donation levels refer to?
For our initial rollout, we are counting donations from January 1st 2023 through September 30, 2024. After December 31st, 2024, we will switch to a calendar year, tracking January - December. Donate before January 1st, 2025 to add on to your current level!
When will donors be able to publicly see their donation levels on this page and elsewhere?
We will publish our current CAPE Giving Machine participants and their levels by December 1, 2024. We will also send letters directly to our members notifying them of their giving level during November.
Can I join the Cavaliers Club, Chromium Club or King Cobras Club with a one-time donation?
Only recurring donations qualify for our program clubs. However, if you’d prefer to make your recurring donation quarterly or annually instead of monthly, this will also qualify as long as the total donation equals $120/year or more ($48/year for Cavaliers age outs from the past 3 seasons).
How do I claim the benefits associated with my level?
Benefits are distributed once per year in the Spring. CAPE will contact you directly about how to claim any apparel, pins, or show tickets. The deadline to hit specific levels in time for certain perks will be communicated.
The CAPE Organization is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization, and your donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
Tax-deductible donations include one-time donations, monthly donations, scholarship funds, giving in honor/memory, or donating to specific fundraising initiatives like Backyard Brawl or Cav-A-Meal.
NON tax-deductible giving includes contributing to member dues, purchasing merchandise or raffle tickets, or volunteering.
