Financial Campaign Objectives • Campaign seeks to secure at least $1 billion in new gifts and commitments, both spendable/annual and endowed, for Student Support, Faculty Support, Programmatic Support, and Facility Support. • Endowment Giving - for a campaign of $1 billion, it is expected that approximately 25-35% of the total will be endowment commitments. • Deferred Gifts - for a campaign of $1 billion, it is expected that approximately 30% of the total will be deferred gifts. Deferred gift instruments, such as gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, and simple bequests often are designated for endowment.
Additional Campaign Objectives • Volunteer Engagement – new volunteers will be engaged to serve Auburn during the campaign. • Donor Relations and Stewardship - the nature/level of donor appreciation and stewardship should be enhanced during and after the campaign. • Annual Giving - the annual giving program should be positioned to generate increased alumni participation and secure gifts in excess of $5 million annually. • Sustainable Giving – the level of annual philanthropic support will be elevated during the campaign. Post campaign aspiration is to maintain new gifts and commitments of approximately $100 million annually, economic factors permitting.
