Guild Contribution Levels

The word “guild” is from the Saxon “gilden” meaning, "to pay" and refers to the subscription paid by the members. A higher social status could be achieved through guild membership and Guild members were supported by the Guild if they became sick. There were two main kinds of guilds - merchant guilds and craft guilds. A man would have to work through three phases to become an elite member of a Medieval Guild. Therefore, the higher the donation from a Individual, corporation or foundation the higher their ranking will be in The Stolen Shakespeare Guild.
