Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alumni associations and offices of development play fundamental roles in American higher education, typically having missions which include the generation of financial support for the institution. Alumni associations must develop strategies to encourage alumni to donate money and enable them to build long-term relationships between alumni organizations and the university. The foundation of any fund raising program is the annual fund. Not only does the annual fund represent a significant percentage of funds raised for most charities, it often comes with the fewest strings attached. If development professionals have a clear understanding of the issues and factors that influence donors to make annual gifts, they may be able to design cultivation and solicitation approaches which raise more money at less cost. The study uses quantitative methods to analyze data collected from the computer database of the Mississippi State University Foundation and Mississippi State University National Alumni Association to develop a profile of donors and non-donors. Recommendations for further study include more studies of this type in the region, interview studies with donors, and studying any relationships between giving and other variables, such as income level.

Book excerpt: This project explores why non-donors do not give to their alma mater. Interviews with 12 non-donors allowed for an in-depth examination of the decision-making process of these non-donors. The Van Slyke and Brooks (2005) model of alumni giving and Schervish's (2000b) supply-side theory of philanthropy provided the conceptual framework. These findings suggest that where donors and non-donors differ is in the ways in which they socially construct their college experiences to create their own realities. This reality becomes the narrative lens through which non-donors interpret and evaluate requests for donations to the college. Variables such as their reasons for attending college, how they fit college into their life, and if they viewed college as a commodity emerged as important themes in non-donor narratives. Other process variables -- who makes the giving decisions and how they prioritize giving -- come into play for these non-donors as well. This study demonstrates the need to include non-donors in research that explores factors that motivate alumni to give to their alma mater and confirms that examining the impact of demographic characteristics and experiences on alumni giving cannot rely on oversimplified pictures of only one or two variables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Association of Fundraising Professionals 2014 Skystone Partners Research Prize in Philanthropy and Fundraising Traditionally, institutions have relied on wealthy White men to reach their fundraising goals. But as state investment in public higher education lessens and institutions look to philanthropy to move from excellence to eminence, advancement officers continually need to engage all populations, including many that have historically been excluded from fundraising strategies. Based on theory, research, and past practice, Expanding the Donor Base in Higher Education explores how colleges and universities can build culturally sensitive fundraising and engagement strategies. This edited book presents emerging research on different communities that have not traditionally been approached for fundraising—including Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) alumni, African Americans, Latinos, graduate students, young alumni, women, and faculty donors. Chapters discuss and analyze successful programs and provide practical suggestions and strategies to create and implement fundraising programs that engage these new donor populations. Expanding the Donor Base in Higher Education is an essential resource for any institution looking to expand their pool of donors and cultivate a more philanthropic mindset among alumni and students.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now more than ever, colleges and universities are relying on funds raised from alumni to support their operations. At the same time, the percentage of alumni donors is in decline and new research suggests that higher education fundraising strategies are overly reliant on alumni behaviors and demographics as predictors of giving. A 2011 study by McDearmon addressed this issue by establishing a psychometric measure of a graduate's self-identification with his or her role as an alumnus/a, dubbed "alumni role identity." Based in role identity theory (Stryker 1968, 1980; Callero, 1985), McDearmon's research demonstrated that alumni role identity was associated positively with alumni participation in giving. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors and characteristics that influence alumni role identity, and thereby improve the ability of colleges and universities to solicit alumni donations. Four research questions were investigated by fielding an alumni role identity questionnaire to graduates of a mid-size, Jesuit university on the West coast. Institutionally-held data on communications, social media use, behavioral, demographic, and giving attributes of the 4,094 respondents were appended to survey responses. Using correlation, principal component analysis, independent samples t-tests, and multiple regression techniques, 11 of the 18 attributes studied were found to be unique and statistically significant predictors of alumni role identity. Most notably, participants who had "liked" the university's Facebook page or joined the university's LinkedIn group reported levels of alumni role identity comparable to those reported by participants who had attended a university event. This suggests that higher education fundraising professionals could boost alumni giving by implementing social media strategies to increase the alumni role identity of graduates. Low effect-size results in the regression models of this study indicated that alumni role identity, while influenced by behavioral and demographic factors and characteristics to a degree, is not behavioral, nor demographic in nature. Additionally, a methodological comparison with McDearmon's 2011 study revealed that institutionally sourced data on participant donation history is more exact than donor information collected from participants via self-report. Further research into the antecedents of alumni role identity should take both of these findings into account.
