3 Executive Summary The purpose of this program review was to examine the Annual Giving Program at the University of La Verne, to describe the programs and the capacity of the program as a whole to carry out its mission, and to identify its effectiveness, including areas of strength as well as challenges. Mission: La Verne Annual Giving: Annual Giving provides a dependable source of annual gift revenue to the President and Deans that maximizes resources to a broad array of programs across the University. Annual Giving serves as a primary vehicle for donors to annually support core operating priorities of La Verne academic, scholarships, faculty retention, library and student services. These funds provide the flexibility to seize important opportunities that arise. Goals and Objectives 1. Consistently increase the number of donors who make annual gifts to La Verne 2. Consistently increase annual giving revenue to La Verne 3. Maintain a positive attitude and a sense of connectedness among alumni towards the University of La Verne 4. Maintain a sense of responsibility on the part of alumni to continue to support the University of La Verne financially Indicators The data used in this review involved direct measures of trend information regarding number of donors in different categories, as well as donor amounts associated with these categories. Also, survey data was used to assess the attitudes of alumni about the university, their sense of connectedness, and their sense of financial responsibility. Highlights of Findings La Verne s University Advancement staff in proportion to enrollment numbers and numbers of alumni lags significantly behind peer institutions. Number of donors over the last ten years has increased in certain categories such as non-alumni parents, faculty and staff, and has declined overall and in certain categories such as friends only, and organizations. Dollar amounts have increased in some areas such as unrestricted funds, agency funds, friends only, and faculty and staff, and has declined overall, and in areas of unrestricted cash gifts, gifts in kind, annuity fund, organization gifts and trust/life income. Most alumni surveyed have a positive attitude towards La Verne, however, there is room for improvement in creating a greater sense of connectedness and financial responsibility. Most alumni who donate come from the following programs: Business Administration, Juris Doctorate, and School Counseling; within CAS most come form Psychology, Biology, English, sociology and history; Within CBPM most come from Business Administration, Business Management, and Business Organization, and Public Administration; Within CEOL most come form School Counseling, Educational Management, Special Emphasis, Diversified, and Educational Leadership. 3

I. Purpose and Mission of Annual Giving The purpose of this program review is to examine the Annual Giving Program at the University of La Verne, to describe the programs and the capacity of the program as a whole to carry out its mission, and to identify its effectiveness, including areas of strength as well as challenges. A donor-centric, comprehensive, annual giving program not only secures dependable gift revenue to support the immediate priority needs of the institution, it provides a strategic value of education and cultivator of donor loyalty over a donor s lifetime. Success is not only measured by gift revenues rather by a more complex set of metrics that assess sustainable growth of a prospect base. And, by building a core of loyal annual donors who potentially become major gift, planned gift and or principle ($1million+) gift donors to the University of La Verne. Annual giving sustains a culture of giving and strengthens the relationship overtime between the donor and La Verne. It provides opportunities for annual recognition of giving, encourages habit of giving and creates current and continuous opportunities to be engaged with the life of La Verne and to the have access to its leadership. La Verne inaugurated its new donor-centric annual giving program in the summer of 2008 that essentially acquires and recognizes all annual gifts. Advancement is a centrally managed model that requires La Verne to reconsider core strategies and operating principles and budget support that surround annual giving programs. University of La Verne Mission: A values-based independent University, where students from a wide variety of backgrounds study and earn their degree(s) in a highly personalized educational environment taught and mentored by gifted teachers and scholars, located in the heart of Southern California. Mission: La Verne Annual Giving: Annual Giving provides a dependable source of annual gift revenue to the President and Deans that maximizes resources to a broad array of programs across the University. Annual Giving serves as a primary vehicle for donors to annually support core operating priorities of La Verne academic, scholarships, faculty retention, library and student services. These funds provide the flexibility to seize important opportunities that arise. II. Goals 1. Consistently increase the number of donors who make annual gifts to La Verne 2.

10 V. Findings Goal 1: Consistently increase the number of donors who make annual gifts to La Verne A. Number of Alumni Current status Appendix C provides the breakdown of alumni participation by degree, location, college, and major based on the most current non-trend snapshot data available as of Altogether La Verne has 51,978 mailable alumni addresses, 2,246 of who are donors, indicating a participation rate of 4.3%. In terms of degrees, the top three donor counts come from BA, BS, and MS. The top three participation rates come from alumni with degrees in MA (11%), Ed.D., (9%), BA (9%). MA Teaching comes with 42% participation rate with only 5 donor out of 12. In terms of campus location, the Undesignated category is the highest with 32% participation rate; the other high participation rates come from the College of Law (9%), the Main Campus (8%), DPA (8%) and Ed.D. (6%). The top three donor counts come from the Main Campus, RCA (SCE), and CAPA. In terms of majors overall, the highest donor counts come from Business Administration (495), major undeclared or unknown (355), Juris Doctorate (105), and School Counseling (90). As for known majors grouped by college, from College of Arts and Sciences the top 5 donor counts come from Psychology (59), Biology (52), English (46) Sociology (33) and History (31%); from the College of Business and Public Management the top 5 donor counts come from Business Administration (495), Organizational Management (87), Public Administration (83), Business Management (54), and Business Organization (48); from the College of Education and Organizational Leadership the top 5 donor counts come from School Counseling (90), Educational Management (71), Special Emphasis (69), Diversified (38), and Educational Leadership (37) tied with Physical Education (37). B. Number of Alumni and Other Groups Giving Multi-year Projections Appendix D shows multi-year giving with projections by alumni and others in multiple graphs. The second graph compares the number of alumni and non-alumni donors. In 2009 the alumni composed 87% (1850) of the total number of donor and 13% (496) were non-alumni. By 2015 it is projected that the total number will increase by 72% from 2156 to 4350, the number of alumni donors will increase by 81% to 3350, and the non-alumni will increase by 41% to 770. Appendix E shows a number of charts that the trend of donors over the last ten years, and the amounts donated. The second chart shows alumni and non-alumni donors between 2000/2001 and A. Decline in number of donors The overall numbers declined by 15%; the alumni numbers declined by 5% and non-alumni by 24%. There appears to be a general dip starting 2006 in all three categories. However, in parallel, as the first chart shows, it is interesting to note that there was a significant increase in the amount of giving to over $11 million in 2006, exceeding that of 2001, followed by decline in the following three years. The overall decline the last few years may be attributed to the economic environment, and is inline with the reported decline by non-profits nationally. 10

11 The other charts show, since 2000, that the number of donors in certain categories declined. Friends only donor count declined from 483 to 341 (29%); and, the organization donor count declined from 295 to 170 (42%). B. Increase in number of donors The number of donor in other categories increased. The non-alumni parent donor count increased from 33 to 65 (49%); the faculty and staff donor count went up from 84 to 180 (114%) with a noticeable and stable increase since 2006; similarly, the non-alumni faculty and staff only donor count went up from 85 to 201 (136%), again with a noticeable and stable increase since In summary, regarding goal 1, while the overall number of donors declined together with some of the categories such as friends only and organization donors, the number of donors increased in a number of categories such as non-alumni parents, faculty and staff donors and non-alumni faculty and staff. Goal 2: Consistently increase annual giving revenue to La Verne Appendix E shows trend data in amount of giving by different categories. On the whole, not unexpectedly, the trends of the amounts given follow the trends of the donor counts. Some categories have increased and some have declined. A. Declined Categories The overall giving declined 62% from about $10.7 million in 2000, to $4.1 million in 2009, with a significant increase in 2006 to an amount of about $11 million. The other areas of decline are in the categories of current fund unrestricted cash gifts (14%); gifts in-kind declined significantly from about $2.6 million after 2001and stayed low to $ 170K in 2009; the annuity fund, organization gift, and the trust/life income funds showed a very similar trend. B. Increased Categories All current unrestricted funds went up 11% between 2001 and 2009 with a significant increase in 2007 of 78% to an amount of about $1.2 million; agency fund increased from about $13K to $26K (94%); friends only gift dollar amount increased from about $414K to $571K (38%) with a significant pick of about $4.7 million in 2006; non-alumni parent only gift dollar amount increased from about $27K to $86K (216%) with significant peaks of over $300K in 2004 and 2005; all faculty and staff gift dollar amounts increased from about $61K to $203K (235%) with a significant peak to about $803K in 2004; and non-alumni, faculty and staff only gift dollar amount increased from about $52K to $179K (238%). In summary, regarding goal 2, the overall dollar amount of giving declined in the last ten years; giving also declined in given categories of unrestricted cash gifts, gifts in kind, annuity and trust/life income; however, dollar amounts increase on a number of categories such as agency funds, friends only gift, non-alumni parents, and faculty and staff gifts. Goal 3: Maintain a positive attitude and a sense of connectedness among alumni towards the University of La Verne 11

12 To address goal 3 and 4 an electronic survey was conducted of alumni. Appendix F summarizes the findings of the survey in terms of frequency of responses. Altogether 20,646 s were sent with 3.7% bouncing back. The number of alumni who opened the was 3107 (16%), and of those 1298 (41%) clicked into the survey from the , and 42 opted out. The number of alumni who submitted their responses was 1100, 87% of those who clicked on the survey, and 35% of those who opened the . The survey had three questions dealing with attitudes (Goal 3) and two questions dealing with connectedness (Goal 3), and one question dealing with sense of financial responsibility (Goal 4). No demographic data was gathered. Attitudes Regarding responses to the attitudes questions, the following was obtained: 1. How would you rate your educational experience as a student while at La Verne? A high of 84% said Excellent (46%) or Very Good (38%). 2. How were you treated by most faculty and staff at La Verne? A high of 87% said Excellent (54%) or Very Good (33%). 3. I have, or will, encourage others to attend the University of La Verne. A high of 91% said yes. Connectedness Regarding responses to the connectedness questions, the following was obtained: 1. As a graduate, La Verne makes me feel like an important part of the community. About two-thirds, 69%, said Very True (35%) or Somewhat True (34%). 2. La Verne keeps me well informed about current happenings and important accomplishments of the University. A high of 85% said Very True (57%) or Somewhat True (28%). Goal 4: Maintain a sense of responsibility on the part of alumni to continue to support the University of La Verne financially Sense of financial responsibility Regarding responses to the survey question on financial responsibility, the following was obtained: 1. As a graduate of La Verne, I feel it is important for me to support my alma mater financially and my support matters to the University. Only 22% said Very True, and 31% said Somewhat True, for a total of 53% of endorsement of the statement. In summary, regarding goal 3 and 4, it appears that among the responding alumni there is a high degree of positive attitude toward La Verne, and being well informed about the university events and accomplishments. However, there is room for improvement in terms of feeling important and part of the community, as well as a sense of financial responsibility to support the University. 12
