3946 does a similar set of tiers.
All donors get a thank you letter/certificate and are invited to robot demos.
$100+ donors (silver) get their name (and logo if they provide one) on the web site.
$500 + donors (gold) get their name and logo on a pit "thank you sponsors" display
$1,000+ donors (platinum) get their name and logo on the robot.

Now that we have a trailer, the larger donors (don't recall if its gold or platinum) get their logo on the trailer.
While we don't clearly define this due to varying aspect ratios of different logos, logo sizes go up with the dollar value of the donation.
Major sponsors may also get a special robot demo, either at their place of business, or at public event they sponsor.
Our team t-shirt stays basically the same from yar to year on the front, but the rear is specific to each year, and includes platinum donor logos. This year's also had the FRC and Recycle Rush logos at the very top, followed by Ingersoll Rand (who game us $9k to buy and outfit the trailer), followed by our other platinum sponsors as of t-shirt order time: NDEP, PAE, TEXTRON, and iFixit.
We also have a bearded mentor who occasionally lists the platinum sponsors on CD.;->
