Be Counted<br />
Having a kid and starting a business<br />
within the last 18 months means<br />
I have less time and money to give to anything<br />
right now, including my alma mater.<br />
I’ve learned, though, that the act of giving<br />
is more important than the gift—that<br />
giving, no matter what the amount, is a<br />
good habit that benefits both me and<br />
<strong>Northwestern</strong>. I also realize small gifts lead to big dollars when foundations<br />
and other donors are impressed by the alumni giving rate of NWC.<br />
Colin Doughan ’02 and his wife, Corinne (Fanning ’02), are the parents of<br />
Jackson (1). Colin works in finance for Lockheed Martin in Omaha, Neb. He and<br />
his brothers, also <strong>Northwestern</strong> alumni, are the entrepreneurs behind Butlers<br />
Café and Coffee, a growing chain of restaurants committed to fostering<br />
Midwestern values and community through “others first” service.<br />
It all<br />
adds up.<br />
The <strong>Northwestern</strong> Fund Phonathon runs through<br />
Nov. 15. When a student calls you, ask how NWC’s<br />
alumni giving percentage stacks up and learn how<br />
to make your gift count.<br />
