Annual Fund Report La"" Thompson ('6') Alumni Fund 5 Chair Alumni Fund 5 finishes second to Alumni Fund 4 The 1983-84 Alumni Fund proved to be the second most successful campaign in the five-year history of the alumni fund-raising effort. Gifts to the University totaling $71 ,094.50 were made by 1,229 donors through Alumni Fund S. Only Alumni Fund 4 had grealer totals, with $98,858.33 in gifts from t ,460 donors. "Thanks to Alumni Fund 5 chair larry Thompson ('68), this campaign turned ouilo be a winner," said PSU Development Officer Floyd Harmon ('79). The campaign was launched in October 1983 by former Development Officer Karen Martini ('73), who left PSU in January. Harmon took over in February. Thompson and his 38 volunteers provided the necessary continuity during the transition, said Harmon. Thompson was responsible for the personal solicitation portion of the campaign, an alum-to-alum appeal that brings in most of the larger gifts. Direct mail solicitation from the PSU Foundation office and a phonathon supplemented the volunteer efforts. Graduates of the School of Business Administration staged their own campaigns within Alumni Fund 5. The MBA Fund brought in $20,332.50 and the Accounting Department raised $9,736.50. These funds were earmarked for School of Business projects. Gifts made to Portland State through the Alumni Fund can be used to support programs and activities which do not receive funding from the state. Most of this year's unrestricted gifts went to scholarships for PSU freshmen and continuing students, with some funds used to purchase equipment or assist faculty in their professional development. "The life of the University is enriched by these private gifts," said Thompson. "Voluntary support can make the difference between an adequate university and an excellent one." Scholarships possible through 1250 Club Seventeen PSU freshmen have benefited directly from the University's first 1250 Campaign, chaired by David Belles (,60). This new giving plan encouraged individual and corporate donors to give $1,000 for Presidential Scholarships and $250 for a special fund for faculty development. Thanks to the efforts of Belles, the 1250 Club has seventeen members, four of whom made four-year commitments and had scholarships named for them.
