The Annual Fund and Building A World-Class
University
The FIU Annual Fund provides alumni and friends of the University with an opportunity
to bridge the gap between its state assisted budget and the most critical needs of the
University, thereby allowing FIU to continue to build on a tradition of excellence.
Unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund provide great resource flexibility in allowing funds
to be utilized where the need is the greatest.
A gift to the Annual Fund, particularly from FIU alumni or friends of the University
demonstrates confidence in the University and encourages others to give. This appeal
goes far in helping FIU meet its everyday needs and provides enrichment beyond limited
state funding. A gift to the FIU Annual Fund provides an excellent opportunity for alumni
to give back.
The University counts on its alumni and friends to join the many corporations, foundations
and other friends who have made significant contributions to its financial future. By
supporting the Annual Fund, alumni can help FIU honor its responsibility to educate and
prepare students for the future.
Matching Gifts
Many corporations have programs that match charitable contributions made by
employees. An employee can double (or in some cases even triple) his or her
contribution by taking advantage of their company’s program.
Both your gift and the matching gift will be credited toward your overall giving
level for donor recognition. Matching gift forms are usually available from the
human resources department.
