2005-2010 Strategic Work

1. Expand and solidify annual giving

a. Support an effective development leadership role for the LAAB, specifically the LAAB’s KRA #5, Fund Raising – initiated 7/1/05.

• Via the LAAB, support/conduct a class agents/reunion giving program – implement 7/1/06.
• Via the Law Alumni Association Board, support/conduct law firm/business sector/public sector challenge programs; start program design 1/1/06 – implement initial phase 7/1/06.

b. Conduct annual graduating class gift endowment campaigns; September 1st through April 30th each academic year – implement 9/1/05.
c. Conduct an effective direct annual solicitation program (direct mail, phonathons, e-solicitation, etc. with defined revenue goals for each appeal and each segment) – implement 7/1/05.
d. Establish a dynamic on-line giving program – start program design 1/1/06 – implement 7/1/06.
e. Grow CULS faculty/staff annual giving with a target of 100% participation for full-time tenured/tenure-track faculty and salaried/administrative associates (implemented 7/1/05).

2. Build a major gifts/planned gifts program appropriate to CULS history and constituency

a. Identify and cultivate major/planned gift prospects; set number of calls, solicitations, and gifts (started 7/1/05)
b. Create and maintain a planned gift society and populate that society – start program design 1/1/06 – implement 7/1/06.
c. Establish and maintain an endowment education program (how it works and benefits)

• Develop Case for Philanthropic Support of CULS concurrent with the development of the CULS Strategic Plan – complete Case by 6/30/06.
• Funding priorities/opportunities to be reflective of strategic initiatives identified within CULS Strategic Plan which is to be completed early spring 2006
• Funding opportunities to be “validated” by CULS business/financial planning model which is hoped to be available to support the 2006-07 budget planning

3. Further develop overall recognition/stewardship, including:

a. Design and install a CULS donor recognition wall – planning initiated; installation to be completed for 4/29/06 “ribbon-cutting” reception.
b. Donor recognition societies – conceptual discussions have occurred; complete definitions for incorporation within the donor wall.
c. Annual Donor Honor Roll to reflect new recognition societies; incorporate into 2005-06 Dean’s Annual Report.
d. Insure annual distribution of stewardship letters to endowed scholarship donors notifying them of 1) scholarship recipients, 2) scholarship amount, 3) market value of endowed fund, and 4) the date for the annual Donor / Scholarship Recipient event.
e. Coordinate with Capital University’s Institutional Advancement Division to insure CULS’ appropriate participation in stewardship events such as the annual Philanthropy Celebration Dinner and any events held in context of a university-wide campaign.
f. for 2006 calendar year; initial statements may be produced only for donors above a specific dollar amount, and/or initial test may be selected “test” constituencies, i.e. faculty/staff.
g. Develop and implement a well-defined “membership” program that articulates the “benefits” of being a Dean’s Circle/Council level donor.
