LESSONS LEARNED

Our Donor Base

Our constituents will respond to requests for significant contributions

There is still considerable growth potential in terms of numbers of donors

Challenges work

Financial aid sells

Parents remain a prime source of support

A Few Important Trends

Volunteers will become increasingly important -

but in targeted ways

On-line giving and e-solicitations will continue to grow

Younger donors will continue to restrict gifts

The economy will not rebound over night!

Keys Going Forward

We Need to be Both High Touch and High Tech
