Does the Foundation offer support for unit-based alumni and donor programs? 

In general, all financial support (outside of donor designated funds) goes to the operations of the Division of Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement. The division does offer staffing support for most alumni and donor outreach, communications, stewardship, solicitation, etc. Please contact your unit’s Project Manager <link> to begin a discussion.  

How do I know if my project or program idea supports the overall alumni and donor goals?  

• Determine how your request supports overall alumni and donor engagement or philanthropy
•  Determine the overall expense request  
• Secure confirmation on how much budget your unit is contributing 
• Fill out the request for funding form  

• Requesting funds that don’t align with alumni and donor engagement and philanthropy efforts 
• Requesting support from the Foundation to cover an operational expense in your unit 

• How does this request elevate the overall goals and strategies for university alumni and donor engagement or fundraising?
• What budget and staffing does your unit have available to co-support this request?
• Do you need funding assistance or is this a chance to fundraise for a special appeal or sponsorships?
