Resumen

As funds dwindle and costs rise university advancement staff have been given higher fundraising goals to meet the needs. In addition, university advancement staff have received pressure to review and lower the costs of fundraising to become more efficient (Drezner, 2011). To enable university advancement staff to attain goals, advocate for resources, or enhance processes, university advancement staff are challenged to measure their effectiveness. However, the process of measuring university fundraising success is unclear as there are many variables to consider and several ways to determine success. For this study the Delphi Technique (Hsu & Sanford, 2007) was used with 3 rounds of questionnaires. Seventeen experts of fundraising analytics were asked to identify both quantifiable and nonquantifiable variables that should be included in a comprehensive model to determine success in university fundraising. Findings include quantifiable measures such as return on investment, growth in giving reports, new and recaptured donors, and fundraiser performance and activity metrics. In addition, findings include nonquantifiable measures such as institutional and environmental forces were identified by the participants as critical components to comprise in a comprehensive model. Further findings include a variety of other metrics, both quantifiable and nonquantifiable, that were identified by the participants as critical components to comprise in a comprehensive evaluation model.

Resumen

In the last decade, private liberal arts universities have experienced financial difficulties requiring the need to raise private funds. The financial viability of these universities depends on the ability of university presidents to raise money; however, challenges remain to carry out this task. To increase fundraising effectiveness at the university being examined, this case study identified skills and practices of 10 university presidents who achieved fundraising success during their tenure, such as the completion of a capital campaign or the growth of the university's endowment. Transformational leadership style traits were considered to determine their alignment with the successful fundraising behaviors identified. The 10 university presidents were selected to participate through referral sampling that identified peers from the professional networks of study participants that met the selection criteria. The presidents were interviewed, and those data were recorded, transcribed, organized, and coded into emerging themes. Results indicated the importance of setting a vision for the university and implementing behaviors that motivated donors to join that vision. Identified skills were practical applications of a leadership style that were grounded in the importance of personal relationships. The study contributes to positive social change by providing skills and behaviors for university presidents to improve their fundraising effectiveness in order to provide increased resources for universities to better carry out their educational mission.

Resumen

Abstract Fundraising is a critical element for the success and survival of higher education institutions. These institutions are all dependent on financial contributions from alumni as well as philanthropic organizations and private benefactors to support the institution. The presidents of these institutions are instrumental in seeking and obtaining funds in order to maintain the stability of these colleges and universities. Presidents should be knowledgeable of the nuances that make an institution successful and must aim to create those environments. The purpose of this qualitative investigation was to examine college presidents’ approaches to fundraising at selected Historically Black Colleges or Universities (HBCUs) in the South Eastern region of the United States (US). This study examined the strategies employed by these institutions and particularly their presidents. It also examined the philosophies, experiences, and fundraising strategies currently being employed by the selected college and university presidents. In this study a blend of existing theories was used to construct the conceptual framework. Therefore, the conceptual framework addressed the cultural and social aspects of race and the role it plays in the participant’s environment through the use of Critical Race Theory and the relationship between presidents and benefactors through Social Exchange Theory. Stakeholder Theory defines those groups within an organization without whose support the organization would cease to exist (Freeman, Harrison, Wicks, Parmar, & DeColle, 2012). In this study, stakeholder theory was used to address and identify the parties that exist to support the organization such as the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, students and alumni, as well as how these stakeholders’ interests are met. Lastly, Transformational Leadership Theory was used to address the leadership elements of the participants and how they communicate their vision and strategies for their fundraising campaigns. The results of the study, which intended to explore the experiences of presidents as they seek funds on behalf of their college or university, revealed that while the president of the institution is responsible for leading the fundraising efforts, additional entities also play a major role in the institution’s ability to successfully raise funds. Analysis of the data using a thematic approach produced themes regarding the president’s role in fundraising, the importance of messaging, fundraising strategies and barriers to fundraising. Implications for leaders of HBCUs include investing in and providing resources for the advancement office as that is the foundation for successful fundraising, actively and aggressively embracing fundraising as the primary duty in their role as president and selecting members with proven track records of giving for the Board of Trustees as they play a critical role in fundraising for the institution. Understanding the participants’ experiences and the challenges they face can greatly assist others currently in the field as well as incoming presidents as they assume the role as leaders of an HBCU institution.

Local Education Foundations (LEFs), non-profit organizations that are closely associated with and in support of their local schools, have become a key resource in meeting the needs of today's students in public education. The purpose of this case study is to examine two LEFs in suburban Philadelphia, identify keys to their success or failure, and discuss their impact on and struggles in helping students in their communities. The theoretical frameworks of Overlapping Spheres of Influence and the Ethic of Community are applied to gain further insight into LEFs and will support the literature and research findings. The research questions that were answered are what is the perceived impact of Local Education Foundations on students and what are key indicators of a successful Local Education Foundation. Literature regarding the origins, goals, structures, and methods of fundraising, how their funds are distributed, outcomes, benefits, and limitations is examined. Pertinent documents about selected LEFs were gathered, observations of LEF board meetings were made, and interviews were conducted with many stakeholders, including LEF members, school district personnel, families, and donors. Based on the collected data, both LEFs embodied the three traits of a successful LEF as identified in the literature. Both have also made an impact on their community through scholarships and programs.

Resumen

The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a relationship among selected demographic variables and donor or nondonor status of alumni and employees at the participating university. The variables involving alumni were gender, highest degree earned, and college of major study. The variables regarding employees were gender and position. The study was conducted using archived alumni data from the Alumni Association’s database program and the archived employee data from the Office of Human Resources’ database program. The population for this study consisted of the 76,728 alumni and the 2,279 full-time employees of a mid-sized southeastern university during the fiscal year 2009-2010. The results of the data analysis gave insight into what degree alumni and employees gave back to their university and place of employment. For example, 3.9% of alumni were found to be donors while 18.4% of employees were shown to be donors. The percentage of alumni who donated increased with each advanced degree earned. Males in both categories, alumni and employees, donated at a higher percentage than females. In the employee category, faculty were shown to donate at a higher percentage than administrators or staff. The study provided an increase in the body of knowledge of the variables of alumni giving and employee giving at the participating university.

Resumen

Educational Administration
Ed.D.
This study is an examination of the giving decision-making process, as well as the factors, characteristics, and motivators of major donors to music programs in higher education. The college and the conservatory of music selected for this study are part of large, public, doctoral, research universities in metropolitan areas with at least three major arts organizations. The primary sources for the data were interviews with donors who have made major gifts to the selected colleges of music. Review of the donors' giving patterns, and an interview with the Director of Development at each institution were also used to gain a better understanding of the giving decisions of major donors. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that have motivated the gifts made by major donors. Higher education has a direct impact on the economic growth of society (Bowen, 1996; Clotfelter et al., 1991; Curti & Nash, 1965; Elliott, 2006; Gaudiani, 2003; Leslie & Slaughter, 1992; Smith & Drabenstott, 1992; Van Til, 1990). In the same way, philanthropy has played an important role in the development of higher education (Bremmer, 1996; Curti & Nash, 1965; Sears, 1990). Music and arts are also considered an essential part of societal development (Christ-Janer & Wickiser, 1968; Knieter, 1976; Myers, 2006; Rankin, 1982). Based on Christ-Janer & Wickiser (1968) and Rankin (1982), I anticipated that a great appreciation for music and a strong relationship to the academic institution's donor's support were two of the main motivators that have contributed to the giving decisions of major donors to music programs in higher education. I expected to find a level of relational affinity as defined by King (2005) who states that the donor-institution relationship is based on undergraduate experiences in the case of alumni, or interpersonal relationships with the leadership of a university for non-alumni. I also expected major donors to be drawn to give to colleges and schools of music because of their mission and the impact these schools have on the community. Different than all most of my expectations and findings in the existing literature on major donors, the results of this study show a different decision-making process for major donors to music higher education. The benefit of this study is to have a better understanding of major donors' behavior toward the arts and their motivation to give to music programs in higher education. The resulting knowledge provides additional insight for development officers at colleges of music as they work with their major donor cultivation, solicitation and stewardship.

Resumen

The current funding challenges affecting public colleges and universities place a greater reliance on philanthropy, and women represent one of the most attractive donor segments. As private giving becomes increasingly essential to ensuring access to quality public higher education, the need exists to better understand women’s philanthropic patterns, motivations, and behavior so that practitioners of higher education fundraising can apply the knowledge tools that will facilitate more effective strategies when cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding major donors. This qualitative study explored an existing conceptual framework with the intent to substantiate its application with women who were major donors to public higher education. The framework, coined by its authors (Shaw & Taylor, 1995; Shaw-Hardy, 2005; Shaw-Hardy & Taylor, 2010) as the Six Cs Plus 3 of Women’s Giving, consists of nine themes, each starting with the letter C, that embody the motivations and outcomes of women philanthropists. Using collective case study methodology and cross-case synthesis as an analytic technique, a composite of six women was presented and reported as a representative case to protect the confidentiality of the study’s participants. The representative case displayed evidence of support for five of the nine C s in the women’s philanthropy framework (create, connect, celebrate, control, and confidence). Across the cases, minimal or no support surfaced for four of the Cs (change, commit, collaborate, and courage). Based on the data collection criteria relating to geographical parameters, the study introduced an additional C, context, as a motivation to donate. From these findings, suggestions on the application of the women’s philanthropy framework in relation to donor giving levels is proposed. Moreover, the study’s conclusions underscore the call for continued scholarship in the area of women and philanthropy, particularly as it relates to women making significant financial contributions.

Resumen

1. Problemstellung und Relevanz des Themas Die deutsche Hochschullandschaft hat in den letzten Jahren zahlreiche Veränderungen bewältigen müssen und steht weiterhin großen Herausforderungen gegenüber, durch welche sich zunehmend wettbewerbsähnliche Merkmale in diesem Sektor verfestigen: • Umstellung auf international vergleichbare Studiengänge • Neuregelung der Studienplatzvergabe • Einführung von Studiengebühren in einigen Bundesländern • Leistungsindikatoren zur Verteilung der staatlichen Haushaltsmittel • Demographischer Wandel Eine Bildungseinrichtung besitzt mehrere Anspruchsgruppen: die Studierenden, welche Bildungsleistungen nachfragen, den Staat, der für die Leistungen zahlt, die Öffentlichkeit, die an Grundlagenforschungen interessiert ist und schließlich die Wirtschaft, die Absolventen rekrutiert (vgl. Berthold, C. 2001, S.431). Die Hochschulen befinden sich untereinander verstärkt im Wettbewerb um qualifizierte (und ggf. zahlungswillige) Studierende, um finanzielle Mittel vom Staat oder aus der Privatwirtschaft und um renommierte Wissenschaftler. Hochschulen müssen sich nun den veränderten Bedingungen anpassen, um auch weiterhin im nationalen und internationalen Wettbewerb überlebensfähig zu bleiben. Grundsätzlich kann sich hierbei an in der Privatwirtschaft erfolgreich eingesetzten Marketinginstrumenten orientiert werden. 2. Zielsetzung und Aufbau der Arbeit Nach einer Analyse der oben genannten Rahmenbedingungen, wird im ersten Teil dieser Arbeit gezeigt, welche Erkenntnisse aus dem Marketing auf Hochschulen übertragen werden können. Dabei werden sowohl strategische Fragen beleuchtet als auch die Instrumente des Marketing-Mix vorgestellt. In einer anschließenden Untersuchung wurden Faktoren bestimmt, welche sich positiv auf den Entwicklungsstand von Marketingaktivitäten an Hochschulen auswirken. Dabei konnten - beispielhaft für die Region Berlin/Brandenburg - sechs verschiedene Hochschultypen identifiziert werden. Diese weisen, in Abhängigkeit der verschiedenen Eigenschaften der jeweiligen Institutionen, einen unterschiedlichen Entwicklungsstand oder ein anderes Verständnis von Hochschulmarketing auf. Aufgrund dessen erscheinen für sie jeweils andere Marketingstrategien empfehlenswert. Die größte Rolle für den differenzierten Status quo im Hochschulmarketing an Berliner und Brandenburger Hochschulen spielt die Stärke des äußeren Drucks unter dem sich die Hochschule befindet, um ihre Auslastung und die notwendige finanzielle Ausstattung sicherzustellen. Ferner unterscheiden sich die Hochschulleitungen erheblich in ihrem Engagement und der Bereitschaft, diesen Herausforderungen mit Marketinginstrumenten zu begegnen. Trotz der gestiegenen Anzahl von Beiträgen zur Notwendigkeit der Einführung von ökonomischen Überlegungen auch im Hochschulmanagement gibt es viele Kritiker, die ein Ende der Freiheit für Forschung und Lehre prophezeien, wenn der Marketing-Gedanke verstärkt auch an Bildungseinrichtungen Einzug hält. Unumstritten ist, dass Managementansätze aus der privaten Wirtschaft nicht ohne weiteres auf eine Hochschule adaptiert werden können. Wahrscheinlich besteht jedoch die größere Gefahr für Freiheit und Erfolg von Forschung und Lehre in der Missachtung dieser aktuellen Tendenzen (vgl. Tutt 2006, S. 171)!
1. Problem and Importance Germany’s academic landscape has dealt with several transformations recently and still faces enormous challenges, which have resulted in the ever-increasing competitive nature within the educational sector: • reorganization of educational degrees for international comparability • adjustments in the allocation of places available for study • initiation of tuition fees in some federal states • efficiency indicators for resource allocation of public funds • demographic change An educational institution has several groups of interest: students who demand educational services, the state which pays for the these services, the general public that is interested in fundamental research and an economic system that recruits qualified graduates (cf. Berthold, 2001, p. 431). Institutions of higher education compete among each other for competent students (who are willing to pay if necessary), qualified scientists and public funding or means from the private sector. To remain viable competitors on a national and international level, institutions of higher education need to adapt themselves to changing conditions. Here it is possible to utilize the successfully applied marketing tools from the private sector. 2. Goal and Structure of this Thesis After an analysis of the above mentioned general conditions, the first part of this thesis will explore which marketing strategies can be adapted for higher education institutions. Both, strategic questions and marketing tools will be discussed. A subsequent research defined criteria, which have a positive impact on the stage of development of marketing-activities in institutions of higher education. Six different types of educational institutions could be identified for the region Berlin/Brandenburg. Depending on the different characteristics ofeach institution, they exhibit a variety of stages of development or diverse understandings of marketing for higher education. Thus, differing marketing strategies can be recommended in each case. The most important factor in the differences in the marketing management of higher education institutions in Berlin and Brandenburg is the level of intensity of external pressure put on these establishments in order to guarantee the maximum utilization of resources and financial strength. Furthermore, the institution’s administrations differ in the commitment and willingness to respond to these challenges with marketing tools. Despite the increasing number of papers written on the necessity to introduce economic considerations into the management of higher education institutions, there are many critics that prognosticate the end of freedom within research and teaching if the spirit of marketing enters into education. Though it is an indisputable fact that management approaches from the private sector cannot be adapted into educational institutions without changes, freedom within research and teaching possibly faces a bigger threat from the disregard of these current changes and developments (cf. Tutt 2006, p. 171)!

Institutional advancement is a constant challenge for leaders at institutions of higher education. The continued threat to historically black college and universities (HBCU) survival, due to the lack of resources they need to operate and compete, is at the forefront of concerns for many HBCU presidents and supporters. Research suggests that to have success in acquiring more resources, universities will need to work with their alumni associations and foundations. The purpose of this qualitative, multi-case study was to contribute to the limited research on the relationships among HBCU leaders responsible for growing resources. Numerous aspects contribute to increasing alumni giving and this study will contribute to that knowledge. The discussion of inter-organizational relationships and how the processes of cooperation, coordination, and collaboration transpire should be a part of the dialogue. Exploration of these relationships and processes can highlight possible solutions and deficiencies in the success of institutional advancement. Sites for this study were purposefully selected to examine these inter-organizational relationships. Data included in-depth interviews and related documents and artifacts. Thirty patterns and three themes emerged from the data analysis. The three themes include an understanding that (a) “working together” enacts cooperation, coordination, and collaboration; (b) human capital and organizational structures affect coordination and the ability to reach goals; and (c) the goal for increased resource capacity focuses the efforts of cooperation, coordination, and collaboration. This study extends the discussion to looking at inter-organizational relationships as another perspective to enhance resources. This investigation also introduces dialogue about alumni association and foundation volunteerism as an important component in developing effective solutions. The understandings portrayed in the identified themes will help university officials, practitioners, advancement volunteers, and supporters of higher education enhance their institutional advancement strategies and help set forth norms for productive behaviors.

Resumen

Private schools often face a gap between their tuition income and the cost of the educational program. Private school administrators, tasked with balancing the school budget, seek to fill this gap through the acquisition of supplemental revenue. Private school administrators have often reported feeling unprepared for the unique responsibilities of the position. In addition, both individual and organizational donors have been noted to assert influence on educational programs. This study adds to the literature specific to supplemental revenue practices for elementary private schools and was influenced by the field of social entrepreneurship. A qualitative case study approach was used. Through purposeful sampling, a private school site was selected in California with fewer than 200 elementary students, evidence of successful fundraising, and tuition under $10,000. The chosen site was a Jewish community day school operating a program for infants through sixth graders. It was the only Jewish school in the county and adjacent areas. Data was collected from ten participant interviews, multiple documents, the school website, and observations. Data components were coded for themes, and a constant comparative method of analysis was applied. The data revealed five themes: (a) systems, (b) purposes of fundraising, (c) constraints on supplemental revenue, (d) operational concerns, and (e) relationships. Thirteen conclusions were drawn from the study. Unanticipated elements included a culture of student fundraising for charity, the coexistence of separate fundraising arms within the school, restrictions religion brought to supplemental revenue efforts, the role tuition discounts played in creating the schools price-cost gap, and differences in donor motivation behind monument building and annual operational support. Recommendations were made for both practitioners and researchers, including the illustration of applying social entrepreneurship to private schools.

Resumen

This research examined the language used by higher education development professionals, specifically similar and dissimilar tropes and how they shape the perception of those development professionals. By studying these linguistic devices, insight is provided into this particular occupation and the effects these devices have on perceptions and interpretation. The findings in this study could help to produce more skilled communicators in the field and could be used as a framework to study other professional positions. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather data from twelve participants, and the data was then analyzed through thematic analysis. Findings revealed the types of metaphors used by higher education fundraisers and if and how they shaped their perceptions of the profession. Findings also showed what contradictions, paradoxes, and ironies are found in the field and if and how they shaped perceptions of the profession. This study applies theoretical aspects of organizational communication to the field of higher education development presenting new data. This study also provides practical implications for those currently in the field to consider.

Resumen

This study is designed to identify traits that enable the novice professional to advance toward expertise in fundraising in higher education. The goal was to develop a conceptual framework that explains how the novice professional can advance toward expertise in fundraising in the higher education sector. This study found that CFREs employed in higher education tend to be Caucasian females between 41 and 60 years of age who move between jobs more commonly and tend to have less formal education than the older males now heading toward retirement. Male or female, younger or more mature, CFREs in this study tended to have fallen into their current careers by accident or without formal training for the profession. CFREs tend to rely upon annual conferences and informal networking for professional development rather than formal education. CFREs in this study identified several traits requisite for expertise in the field, even if they did not exhibit some of those traits themselves. Based upon these findings, a model for skill acquisition in higher education fundraising is proposed, and based upon that model a set of recommendations is offered for revisions to the current qualification and testing of CFREs and for the development of curriculum that will foster expertise. This curriculum is both replicable at multiple sites and expandable to other institutions and to online delivery, providing the industry with a means by which to prepare more fundraising professionals to meet the growing need in the sector.

Resumen

Fundraising for higher education is a recent phenomenon in Uganda where the government has supported education for decades. Recent structural adjustment and liberalization policies mandated by the World Bank and the IMF and internal financial exigencies have necessitated funding diversification in higher education in Uganda and increased the need for private financial support. In developed countries like the United States, Canada, and increasingly, the United Kingdom, private support from alumni, individuals, corporations, and other stakeholders is a key component of higher education funding. This study used qualitative methodology and a holistic case study research design to explore the fundraising function at Makerere University. Tierney's organizational culture conceptual framework was used and data were collected through semi-structured interviews, an alumni questionnaire, document analysis, and observations. The findings include a governance and management structure that does not adequately support the fundraising function, strategies that are adapted to suit the Ugandan cultural context, perceptions of corruption and lack of transparency; and internal conflicts that limit communication and damage the image of the institution. The findings show that Makerere University is not strategically capitalizing on its position as the oldest and largest public university in Uganda and the region to mobilize private support. Reforms addressing the issues and seeking to enhance student and alumni experiences are contributing to fundraising success in various units. The reform efforts include transitioning to a collegiate system, procuring enterprise- wide financial and student services systems, faculty and staff sensitization, outreach and community engagement. The focus on the vision, mission and operationalizing the strategic plan presents an opportunity to dialogue with stakeholders and resonates with potential donors. The findings highlight a renewed spirit of resourcefulness that leverages old paradigms to integrate economic, cultural and social contexts to proffer innovative models of funding diversification.

Resumen

The time has come for community colleges to realize the potential of alumni private funding gifts. While some community colleges have developed alumni associations with success as a source for private fundraising, there are many that have not been successful. Today leaders are still perplexed as to the strategies and factors that contribute to the success of alumni fundraising in the community college environment. Alumni associations can be a funding source and alumni can be advocates, volunteers, and recruiting ambassadors for the colleges. Many community colleges do not know how to engage former students as alumni or begin the process of grooming current students for their role as alumni. Community colleges must begin to realize how its alumni can be a source to address the needs of the college.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the literature to determine the most effective strategies to create successful alumni associations. Evidence based research was be used to analyze how community colleges can identify and engage former students as alumni, what the role of the community college president and chief development officer is in establishing successful community college alumni associations, and what factors are important in developing successful alumni programs to realize the potential of private fundraising gifts. Invest, communicate, engage, and then make the ask! This study will contribute to the community college literature and provide community college leadership with the strategies and factors for success in creating alumni associations to assist with the needs for additional funding sources and to utilize alumni as advocates, volunteers, and recruiting ambassadors for the colleges

Resumen

This study examined the nature and impact of supervisor support on employee job satisfaction among fundraising staff within higher education. Sixteen fundraisers working in higher education institutions were interviewed about supervisor support for fundraiser task needs and personal needs, participant job satisfaction and supervisor impact on it, and participant intention to stay in their jobs and the field. Participants reported satisfaction with their supervisors’ task-related and personal support, high job satisfaction, and strong intentions to stay in their jobs and the field. Key mechanisms of supervisor support included aiding employee growth and development; accelerating and facilitating task completion; being caring, accessible, and communicative; and empowering employees. Doing meaningful work and attaining career achievement and growth also enhanced their job satisfaction. Factors increasing their stay intentions included their sense of achievement at work, rewards, and positive relationships. Suggestions for practice and continued research are offered.

Resumen

Resource dependence has been evidenced among private HBCUs that obtain as much as 90% of operating revenue from tuition and fees. Without alternative funding strategies in place, small declines in enrollment can lead to a major budget crisis. The basic premise of this exploratory inquiry was that fundraising represents an opportunity that has been successfully utilized by many large, predominantly White institutions, but ineffectively by most private HBCUs. Focusing on five private HBCUs in the southeastern United States, this exploratory study investigated the challenges development and fundraising leaders from these institutions have experienced and strategies they have implemented to mitigate these challenges. Three themes emerged from the interviews with the five fundraising leaders: (a) lack of access to wealth, (b) understaffing with inadequate stewardship, and (c) church resource dependence. What was evident from the findings was the usefulness of fundraising dollars in helping the institutions meet critical needs, such as keeping student tuition affordable, providing students with scholarships to fill in gaps between the financial aid they receive and the cost of tuition and fees, and conducting much-needed campus maintenance and repairs. However, though the institutions made strides toward measured fundraising successes, the results revealed that these private tuition-dependent HBCUs were still challenged with securing funds above and beyond the basic fiscal needs of the day-to-day operation of the institutions. In short, the identified fundraising successes paled in comparison to the fundraising successes of many large, predominately White institutions and equated to little more than crisis fundraising typical among HBCUs.

Resumen

Due to changes in economic and social climate, including a decrease in state and federal funding, Associate's Colleges began to supplement their search for funds by fund raising. Associate's Colleges' fund raising has evolved and the purpose of this research was to scrutinize philosophies, perspectives, practices, relationships, and experiences of collegiate staff involved in institutional fund raising in large rural Associate's Colleges in a southeastern state in order to promote prosperity in resource development. The researcher's objective was to endeavor to document the roles of institutional actors in the fundraising process, their training, background, organization, and how their tactics differ when approaching corporations and individuals. In addition, the study looked at governance of foundations and fundraising staff specifics (job descriptions, student use, size related to funds generated). This included the roles of governance, philosophies, resources, methods of procuring funds, and reporting. This study displayed differences and similarities in fund raising practices at large rural Associate's Colleges in a southeastern state and described the setting in which these events took place. The participants in this study were ten fund raisers connected with Associate's Colleges of varying ages, educational backgrounds, and fund raising experience. Data for the study were derived from semi-structured interviews with each fund raiser, a foundation meeting observation, and a review of fund raising related documents. Using basic qualitative methods, the researcher conducted a thematic analysis of the data which enabled him to organize that data into manageable segments where he coded it. This process enabled the researcher to establish connections between the collected data and the research questions. Three major themes emerged from data analysis: (a) Relationship Management is Fund Raising; (b) Relationship Management is a Product of Resources and Communication; (c) Profitable Fund Raising Involves Maximizing the Potential of Four Factors: Participants, Environment, Experiences, Philosophy. Moreover, the study answered how large rural Associate's Colleges in a southeastern state developed fiscal resources in a climate of reduced state and federal funding.

Resumen

This quantitative study utilized secondary data furnished by 652 institutions of higher education which participated in the 2008 Voluntary Support of Education (VSE) national study managed by the Council for Aid to Education. This study investigated the relationships among private and public status across baccalaureate, masters and doctoral degree typologies and total alumni giving, restricted giving and unrestricted giving per full time equivalent (FTE) for the 2007/08 academic year. The independent variable included the three degree-granting sub-categories of institution as categorized by either public or private status. The dependent variables included total computed alumni giving for 2008 per FTE, restricted alumni giving for 2008 per FTE and unrestricted giving by alumni for 2008 per FTE. ANOVA main effects were calculated and statistical significance determined using the α < .05 level. Tukey Post-Hoc calculations were computed and Cohen's f 2 was used to determine effect sizes. Total alumni giving per student FTE differed at statistical significance across the six institution types, F (5, 651) = 37.181, p < .001, f 2 = .29. Total restricted giving per student FTE differed at statistical significance across the six types, F (5, 651) = 28.90, p < .001, f 2 = .22. Total unrestricted giving per student FTE differed at statistical significance across the six types, F (5, 651) = 35.371, p < .001, f 2 = .27. This study's restricted giving index documents alumni make differentiated choices concerning gifts based on institution type. Recommendations are issued for further research and professional practice.

Resumen

Today public higher education leaders are charged with finding private gifts to support their campus operations as state appropriations decline. Accordingly, budget cuts are often a challenge for units within institutions that support the co-curricular experience. This applied dissertation was designed to identify fundraising strategies that supplement operating budgets for student affairs divisions at four-year public institutions that are members the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Southeastern Conference (SEC) and Big Ten. The researcher surveyed development officers that were charged with fundraising for student affairs these institutions, as well other public institutions with an NCAA affiliation. An analysis of the data using Light’s (2005) four pillars of high performance revealed strategies that student affairs have used to be successful. For instance, student affairs divisions that raised the most money were included in the institutions capital campaign and had a dedicated fundraiser for their division. In addition, they collaborated with other development colleagues to ensure priorities under the purview of student affairs were clearly articulated. Put simply, student affairs divisions can be successful in raising philanthropic dollars to support programs and services within their unit.

Resumen

Resource dependencies have increased substantially at colleges and universities over the years due to economic declines, recessionary periods, and decreased funding from state allocations. The purpose of this study was to advance an understanding of private support for higher education as a source of supplementary funding. As the environment continues to become more competitive for outside resources, institutions of higher education can benefit from more substantive and objective research on private voluntary support to better meet their growing needs for additional resources. Effective financial management requires a greater understanding of the expected size of financial contributions to assist with strategic planning and managing expenditure demands. This is especially true during periods of broad economic downturn when many institutions' revenue sources simultaneously suffer economic shocks through reduced endowment earnings; reductions in state appropriations; and external pressures by students, parents, and other stakeholders to keep tuition rates low. The same economic pressures that affect institutional revenue sources also affect the receipt of charitable contributions. Thus, the relationship between charitable donations and the economy is central to understanding whether these contributions help to stabilize the volatility of institutional revenues. This study examined private giving data reported to the Council for Aid to Education's annual Voluntary Support of Education survey from 1987 to 2012. Only gifts contributed by alumni, foundations, corporations, other individuals, and parents to public and private baccalaureate, master's, and doctoral institutions were considered. Giving data were adjusted through the Consumer Price Index, standardized by enrollment, and correlated with three economic indicators: Average Duration of Unemployment, Employees on Nonagricultural Payrolls, and the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Price Index. The statistical analysis selected to examine each of the four research questions was multiple linear regression used to discover to what relationships exist between economic indicators and private giving to higher education by institutional type, institutional classification, and giving source. This study revealed that differences in private giving exist when correlated to economic indicators. Based on these results, it appears that charitable funding directed to support higher education institutions are based to some extent on resource providers' ability to expend support at particular times in the economic environment. As observed throughout all four research questions, the Average Duration of Unemployment indicator had a larger impact on charitable giving to higher education than did the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Price Index indicator. The results of the Fisher's r to z transformations indicated that the regression model for alumni giving to public higher education institutions was determined to be the statistically strongest prediction model, followed by the regression model for foundation giving to public institutions. While fundraising continues to be only one source of additional funding, it cannot be ignored that the generosity of private donors since the earliest days of this country has helped to create, support and sustain the vital functions of colleges and universities. While the pursuit of private support may have been left primarily to the private institutions over the years, more recent developments in state and government funding patterns to higher education make the constant search for additional support sources a reality for today's public higher education institutions as well. Academic leadership must be cognizant that fiscal flexibility in times of economic prosperity as well as in times of economic downturns can be supplemented by the philanthropic intent of those interested in not only an institution's presence or prestige but also by its impact on students, families, communities, customers, and the economy. Institutions of higher education and their institutional advancement programs can greatly benefit from research studies that provide additional substantive and objective research.

Resumen

Because philanthropic support from alumni and their families is an important source of revenue for American colleges and universities, identifying ways to connect with Chinese students and cultivate philanthropic support from their parents is an essential component of fundraising efforts. In this study, I explored how American university advancement officers could employ guanxi to cultivate relationships with Chinese parent donors in order to increase U.S. higher education philanthropy efforts. The concept of guanxi, an important aspect of building and sustaining relationships in China, served as the focus for understanding Chinese parents’ connections with their children’s American universities. I employed a qualitative collective case study design using purposeful criterion sampling and conducted research with seven participants. The research findings inform the practice of American university fundraising. The researcher generated specific strategies for American university development officers to build and cultivate guanxi with Chinese parents in order to receive more donations from them. Recommendations for further research are also provided.

Texto completo

Resumen

Face à la compétition mondiale et à la baisse des financements de l’Etat, le développement du fundraising, défini comme « la levée de fonds dans une optique de financement », est devenu, bien après les Etats-Unis, une priorité pour l’enseignement supérieur en France. Ainsi, écoles et universités mettent en œuvre des politiques de fundraising en direction de leurs diplômés. Mais le fundraising « à l’américaine » est-il un modèle à suivre dans un pays qui, à la différence des Etats-Unis, n’a pas de véritable tradition philanthropique ? Cette recherche souhaite cerner les motivations profondes du don des anciens élèves. Afin d’élaborer un modèle destiné à expliquer la générosité des diplômés envers leur alma mater, les concepts d’identification organisationnelle, de don et, pour la première fois en marketing, de capital social, sont mobilisés. L’objectif est de comprendre comment l’identification de l’ancien élève à « son » école (Ashforth et Mael, 1989, Mael et Ashforth, 1992) peut influer sur son comportement de don, sous toutes ses formes (argent, temps, compétences…) vis-à-vis de celle-ci. Nous émettons l’hypothèse que c’est la mobilisation du capital social (Adler et Kwon, 2002) du diplômé, soit « l’ensemble des ressources actuelles ou potentielles qui sont liées à la possession d’un réseau durable de relations plus ou moins institutionnalisées d’interconnaissance et d’inter-reconnaissance » (Bourdieu, 1980) qui favorise le lien entre l’identification et les dons de l’ancien élève à son école. Après avoir proposé une échelle de mesure pour chacun des trois construits, nous testons les hypothèses de cette chaîne du don. Le modèle est testé sur deux échantillons constitués de diplômés d’une école de commerce : des donateurs monétaires et des non donateurs monétaires. La capacité de l’ancien élève à créer du capital social est directement en lien avec la force de son identification (l’identification à l’école est un antécédent du capital social). La capacité de l’ancien élève à mobiliser ce capital social influe directement sur ses dons, notamment monétaires, à son école (le capital social est un antécédent du don à l’école) et sur les dons dont il bénéficie. Parmi les principaux résultats, nous trouvons que le diplômé a un comportement de donateur vis-à-vis de son école si son identification est essentiellement d’ordre communautaire (et non statutaire). La mobilisation du capital social explique le don ou le non don d’argent, mais pas le niveau de générosité des donateurs
With the challenges of worldwide competition and the decline in financial support from the State, fundraising is now a priority for French Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Schools and universities are striving to implement alumni fundraising policies based on the methods of American universities. However, is the American way of fundraising likely to succeed in a country where, unlike in the United States, there is no real tradition of philanthropy? Our research focuses on the deep motivations of alumni donors. It more specifically focuses on organizational identification (Ashforth and Mael, 1989), as this concept is an important factor in predicting alumni loyalty (Mael and Ashforth, 1992), as well as on social capital (Bourdieu, 1980). We hypothesize that the mobilization of social capital by the alumnus (Adler and Kwon, 2002) mediates the link between identification with the school and donation. We develop a scale for each construct: identification with the school, social capital and donations (time, competencies, money) of the alumnus. The chain from identification to donation is tested on two alumni samples from a business school: donors and non donors. The strength of identification with the school directly affects the creation of social capital (identification is an antecedent of social capital). The mobilization of his/her social capital by the alumnus directly affects the donation of time and money to the school (social capital is an antecedent of monetary generosity). Our main results reveal that the alumnus is a donor if they identify with the school with a community perspective rather than with a statutory one. The mobilization of social capital is a factor in predicting donation or non donation, not the level of generosity

Resumen

A sustentabilidade econômica das instituições de ensino superior (IES) no Brasil vem sendo cada vez mais discutida como uma questão estratégica. No setor público, a dificuldade do Estado de garantir verbas para a sustentabilidade das instituições mostra que há restrições a investimentos para melhoria da qualidade e expansão dessas instituições. No setor privado, a dependência quase exclusiva das mensalidades dos alunos também torna-se um forte restringente da capacidade de investimentos em infra-estrutura, qualidade dos serviços educacionais e pesquisa. Alternativas financeiras, por isso, impõem-se como importante suporte à sobrevivência e continuidade das instituições. Captação de recursos na sociedade pode ser uma alternativa viável, usada comumente pelas IES norte-americanas e tem se transformado em item indispensável em seu orçamento. Seria possível aplicar as estratégias de captação usadas pelas instituições norte-americanas em faculdades de Administração no Brasil? Esta pesquisa estuda a exeqüibilidade de aplicação das estratégias de captação usadas por aquelas instituições na realidade das suas congêneres brasileiras. O método usado foi um estudo de multicaso, em três instituições norte-americanas, uma pública e duas privadas, e em três congêneres brasileiras, avaliando-se contexto, origem e estrutura, papel e finalidades, estratégias, cultura e legislação, e voluntariado. Os principais resultados indicam que nas estratégias de captação das instituições estrangeiras pesquisadas as atividades de captação são centralizadas, usufruem de contexto cultural e legal positivo para a doação, focam mais em indivíduos do que em empresas e atrelam as solicitações a atributos institucionais de credibilidade, garantia de execução dos projetos, flexibilidade, conveniência e interesse dos doadores. Um grande contingente de voluntários é utilizado na captação dessas instituições. As conclusões são de que não há restrições significativas para a aplicação das estratégias usadas pelas instituições norte-americanas na realidade brasileira. A captação de recursos nas congêneres brasileiras é ainda incipiente, não é item orçamentário e voluntários não são utilizados para este fim. Finalmente, contribuições à formulação de estratégias de captação nas instituições brasileiras são sugeridas.
The economic sustainability of higher education institutions in Brazil becomes a strategic issue for these institutions\' survival. For public institutions, Government hurdles to guarantee financial resources cause a strong restriction to investments in quality improvement and institutional expansion. For private institutions, exclusive dependence on tuition causes , on the other hand, a strong restriction to the ability to keep infra-structure, quality of educational services and research abreast. Hence, financial alternatives are vital for continuity of these institutions. Fundraising could be a viable alternative, since this is a commonly used way by American higher education institutions and is an indispensable budget item. Would it be possible to use American higher education fundraising strategies in Brazilian Management School of higher education? This research targets at studying the viability of transferring American higher education fundraising strategies to the Brazilian counterparts. A multicase study was used to study three American, one public and two private, higher education institutions and three Brazilian similar institutions. Context, Structure and Origins; Role and Function; Strategies; Culture and Legislation and Volunteering were studied. Main results indicate that American researched institutions centralize fundraising activities, take advantage of cultural and legal context, target more individual donors than organizations and link soliciting to institutional attributes like credibility and continuity of projects. They also leverage on campaigns\' attributes such as convenience, flexibility and donors interest. Main conclusions show that there is no serious restrictions to use American higher education fundraising strategies in the Brazilian counterparts. Fundraising among Brazilian higher education institutions is still very incipient, it did not become yet a budget item and volunteers are not used whatsoever. Finally, contributions to fundraising strategy formulation for Brazilian higher education are proposed.

Resumen

While the entire weakened economy has had serious implications for higher education and the public investment in the mission of community college, the literature reveals a limited amount of research regarding the types, prevalence, and accountability of more sophisticated fundraising efforts in community colleges. Community colleges are seeking to broaden their revenue generating efforts through private fundraising, alumni development, grant writing, legislative relations, and entrepreneurial partnerships similar to traditional four year higher education institutions. This study focuses on assessing and analyzing Texas public community college fundraising, especially the community colleges with the most limited financial resources and greatest student needs. The study participants included 163 presidents and fundraising professionals from the fifty Texas public community colleges, who were invited to participate in an electronic survey with 20 questions. The research also included ten semi-structured telephone interviews, triangulated with publicly-available background information and data. The research answers four questions: 1) What functions are community colleges employing for fundraising?; 2) To what extent do community colleges coordinate all of their fundraising activities?; 3) What fundraising functions or activities are most effective for community colleges?; and 4) In particular, is there a significant relationship between institutional wealth, enrollment, and/or geographic location and amount of dollars raised by the community college? Findings revealed that while small colleges have the highest institutional wealth, large colleges raise the most dollars. While the types and coordination of fundraising functions, and centralized staffing for these efforts, are limited for most Texas public community college respondents, fundraising effectiveness is most often correlated with enrollment and geographical location, board or administrative leadership, and private and grant development. The most significant finding of the study revealed that smaller size and rural location does not directly translate into lower institutional wealth, as measured by amount of dollars raised. Furthermore higher institutional wealth does not guarantee more dollars raised. The implications translate to a greater need for research on community college fundraising and accountability, assessment on equity issues, public investment in community colleges.

Thesis (MBA.) -- University of Limpopo, 2008
Fundraising is operationally feasible in schools. Schools are allowed to solicit investors in terms of the South African School Act. The research was conducted at Lebowakgomo Circuit , Capricorn District. It was the purpose of this study to develop a sustainable fundraising model for schools through perceptions and experiences of the school principals. The researcher used a survey questionnaire to collect data. Statistical analysis were followed in order to derive information from the data. A key finding was that fundraising takes place at schools mostly when there is insufficient funds, organizing for school events or there is an urgent need of resources. Most of the schools do not allocate a budget for fundraising . A fundraising plan is not included in the school developmental plan. The plan for fundraising is done periodically when a need arises. The purpose and the size of the project determine the type of fundraising. Most of the businesses are willing to give as part of their social responsibility or tax cut. However, schools should market and sell themselves to potential donors and follow more aggressive strategies towards fundraising. Recommendations made include a sustainable fundraising model for schools and the steps to be followed when applying the model.

Resumen

M.Ed.
Since the first democratic election in South Africa in 1994, there has been significant change and development in all spheres of our lives. Democracy and the implementation of a new Constitution have brought about changes, even in the education system. The democratic system of education is characterised by the new Act that is, the South African Schools Act (SASA) No. 84 of 1996 (RSA, 1996b). This Act acknowledges the importance of parents as stakeholders in the school governing bodies (SGBs). It also outlines the other important responsibilities of school governing bodies such as taking the responsibility of managing school funds. Section 36 of the South African Schools Act (RSA,1996b) states that “… a governing body of a public school must take all reasonable measures within its means to supplement the resources supplied by the state in order to improve the quality of education provided by the school to all learners at the school.” It is the responsibility of the state to ensure that schools are fully resourced, be it financial, human or physical resources. There is a perception amongst educators and other stakeholders such as parents that resources allocated by the state are inadequate. If the state funds schools fully, more children will receive quality education as the new funding method or formula is applied. Fundraising is necessary to supplement the resources allocated by the state. The lack of funds in disadvantaged communities is the cause of schools being ineffective institutions of teaching and learning. The aim of this research study was to explore the role of the SGB in managing fundraising for public primary schools in disadvantaged communities. This was undertaken in order to formulate guidelines for SGBs to effectively manage fundraising. A qualitative research design that was explorative, descriptive and contextual was employed. The researcher conducted focus group interviews in order to collect data. The data collected was analysed and interpreted and various themes and categories were identified. Quotations from the prescribed interviews were given to substantiate the themes and categories identified through data analysis. According to the literature review and responses from focus group interviews, it is the responsibility of the state to ensure that schools are fully resourced. However, this is not possible and it is for this reason that school governing bodies must supplement funds through fundraising. Since this research study was limited to Tembisa West in Ekurhuleni District (D6) one of the recommendations made by the researcher is that further research should be undertaken on managing fundraising in all Gauteng Province public primary schools. Future research studies on this phenomenon must be broader with special emphasis on the experiences and perceptions of SGBs in disadvantaged communities in the Gauteng Province.
