ANNUAL REPORT ON GIVINGA Note from Director of Development Michelle RourkeGreetings to all UNIBusiness alumni and friends and special thanks to those who have provided support for the Collegeof Business Administration this year.Many of the alumni I have met have asked about my fundraising work in light of recent economic conditions, so I will take thisopportunity to share an update with you. During Homecoming 2010 we held the public kick-off for the Imagine the ImpactCampaign for the University of Northern Iowa, announcing our goal to raise $150 million by 2013. At the end of FY11, we havemore than $130 million in gifts and pledges to create new scholarships, fund faculty professorships and fellowships, and supportacademic programs.Even through the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, UNI alumni and friends have kept our alma mater a priorityin their charitable giving. While national trends in philanthropy showed declines in alumni-giving rates, Panthers stepped upwith record gifts.UNIBusiness Recognizes Generous Alumni, Friends andInstitutions in Curris Business BuildingMany individuals and institutions have generously supported UNIBusiness and helped continue itstradition of excellence. To show appreciation, UNIBusiness has installed two Donor Walls in the CurrisBusiness Building Hall of Flags to recognize the leading benefactors and their contributions.The Donor Walls will be updated annually to acknowledge UNIBusiness’ top-25 individual and top-25 institutional benefactors based on cumulative cash gifts, pledges and realized bequests. Theindividual Donor Wall recognizes alumni and friends, while the institutional Donor Wall recognizescorporations, foundations and matching gift companies.With your help, we will achieve our campaign goal. Whether you make a gift for immediate use or you create an endowmentto generate perpetual support, you will have a lasting impact on UNIBusiness students and faculty. Program and scholarshipsupport, the Dean’s Fund for Excellence, the UNI Annual Fund and Old Central Associates (those who have created a legacy forthe future with a planned gift) are all ways you can participate.To quote business history author Miriam Beard, “The results of philanthropy are always beyond calculation.” As we continue totrack the financial progress of the Imagine the Impact campaign, we can only dream about how much good our gifts are going todo for the long-term growth and mission of UNI. Thanks very much for doing your part.To learn more about making an impact for UNIBusiness students and programs, please contact me at 800-782-9522, 319-273-4444 or michelle.rourke@uni.edu.Purple for Life,thanks the individuals and institutions that give to UNIBusiness year after year.Michelle Rourke (Marketing ’81)Director of DevelopmentCollege of Business Administration20
