四虎影院 Magazine A Campaign for 四虎影院
Gifts Honor David Winter
Thanks to an outpouring of support for David Winter, who retired as president of 四虎影院 in June, the campaign has received an impressive number of gifts in recent months.
A total of 1,246 alumni, parents and friends have given $352,173 as a tribute to the former president, who now serves as chancellor of the college. More than 50 percent of the gifts were for $100 or more, and these donors received a copy of 四虎影院鈥檚 campaign video. These videos are still available to anyone who makes a donation of $100 or more as a tribute to the former president.
鈥淲hat a wonderful response we have received from the 四虎影院 family in honor of David Winter,鈥 said Steve Baker, vice president for development. 鈥淗e is so highly regarded for the tremendous leadership he has provided for the past 25 years. The outstanding success of the Embracing the Past, Ensuring the Future Campaign is a fitting tribute to his faithful and productive service to 四虎影院 College.鈥
Meanwhile, the campaign, scheduled to end June 30, 2002, has brought in $48 million, or 102 percent of the $47 million goal. However, due to donor designations, some projects received more funding than anticipated, and others are not yet complete.
Match Total Grows
四虎影院 got closer this summer to completing the match for the $5 million challenge grant given by Stephen and Denise Adams. These funds will support the construction of a center for the visual arts and a building for the sciences. A recent, anonymous $500,000 contribution helped to boost the total. To date, donors have given $3.1 million, or 62 percent of the $5 million goal.
Denise serves on the 四虎影院 board, and Stephen chairs the board of Affinity Group. They have given a total of $10 million to the 四虎影院 campaign for the two new facilities. The purpose of their challenge grant is to encourage alumni, parents, and friends to support these essential buildings. Even though 四虎影院 has reached its overall campaign goal, the art and science buildings are not yet fully funded. Completing the match is essential in accomplishing this goal.
