Responsibilities

The Foundation is responsible for coordinating all approved fund-raising activities conducted for the benefit of the University. The approval of University fund-raising activities is handled by the Office of the Chancellor. The Coordination of fund raising must exist in order to avoid an excess of solicitations by campus units directed to any one potential funding source; to assure the general quality of our fund-raising efforts; to assure effective timing of our efforts, and to assure that the priorities of the University are being met. The Foundation is in a position to know of efforts that may be in progress with a given donor. This coordinating function prevents duplication by University units and increases the possibility of success in discussions with donor(s).
