Student Philanthropy<br />
Give. Invest. Gain.<br />
In Fall <strong>2010</strong>, the Student Foundation launched<br />
Give. Invest. Gain. (GIG) to replace the previous<br />
iPledge campaign. Funds from the GIG campaign<br />
support continuing student scholarships and build<br />
the Student Foundation Endowment. Students may<br />
direct a portion of their gift to a specific program<br />
on campus, including colleges, academic divisions,<br />
athletics and more.<br />
Non-senior student philanthropy increased by<br />
330 percent with the launch of the Give. Invest.<br />
Gain. campaign, from 97 to 418 donors.<br />
Student Telephone Outreach<br />
If you’ve ever received a call from <strong>UC</strong> San Diego, chances are a current student is on the<br />
other line. The Telephone Outreach Program, managed by private vendor Ruffalo Cody,<br />
spent 4,624 hours calling 52,154 alumni prospects. This year, student callers raised<br />
$825,673.50 in pledged dollars through the program, with $335,959, or 40 percent,<br />
from 3,319 alumni.<br />
There are three components to every call: Updating contact information, building a relationship<br />
between the alumni and <strong>UC</strong> San Diego, and raising money for the University. Student<br />
callers frequently answer questions about the latest campus news and invite alumni back to<br />
campus to see its ever-changing landscape. Next time you see “<strong>UC</strong> San Diego” on your caller<br />
ID, don’t hesitate to pick up the phone and chat with a current Triton.<br />
