51ÁÔÆæ

If clubs want to seek sponsorship or donations from outside the College, they must work with Student Engagement to submit a list to the 51ÁÔÆæ Foundation 15 business days prior to seeking any sponsorship or donations. Student Engagement will forward to the 51ÁÔÆæ Foundation for approval. 

The reason for the review and required approval is because: 

• The 51ÁÔÆæ Foundation works with off-campus companies and organizations requesting donations to the College. If too many 51ÁÔÆæ groups approach the same sponsor for donations, a potential donation to 51ÁÔÆæ or relationship with the College may be damaged.
• Students need to know the giving histories of the businesses and individuals they plan to contact so that they can be gracious when they contact them and let them know their previous generosity is appreciated.
• The 51ÁÔÆæ Foundation can help coach students, if they choose, on solicitation strategies and materials.

To implement this cooperation, the following steps need to be taken: 

• Student club leaders need to present to the 51ÁÔÆæ Foundation a memo describing the project for which they are seeking funding and the amount they intend to raise.
• A list of potential donors must be included in the memo.
