Why is it important to give
to the Annual Fund even if you have made other restricted gifts to UE?
UE depends
on the Annual Fund to balance yearly operating costs.
Tuition covers less than 90% of the actual cost of educating each
student, and gifts to the Annual Fund help make up the difference. Therefore, the Annual Fund is the
foundation of all giving to the college and provides assistance to every
student on campus.
Why don't all gifts count toward the Annual Fund?
The Annual
Fund consists of unrestricted gifts to UE that support the yearly
operating budget. A gift made to support a restricted project, such as a
particular scholarship fund or a capital project, cannot be used in the
operating budget of the college.

The Annual Fund is
a critical component of the University
of Evansville's
annual fundraising efforts.
Comprised
of the Alumni Scholarship Fund,
Friends for Educational Excellence Fund,
Parents' Fund, Harlaxton College Annual Fund,
and the Athletics Scholarship Fund,
this unrestricted fund enables UE to provide resources to those areas
where the need is greatest. Annual Fund gifts have an impact
on every UE student. Your gift will contribute to completing
the University
of Evansville Experience
through areas such as:
Academic
Quality: Student learning is
our top priority. The Annual Fund is charged with providing student
scholarship assistance for all deserving students.
Distinctive
Curriculum: The Evansville
Experience is knowledge and understanding that prepares students for
professional success...and for life.
Values-Based
Environment: A tradition of inclusiveness and
open inquiry where personal values are accepted and supported by
others.
By making your
2007-2008 Annual Fund gift now, you will be part
of the larger group of alumni, parents and friends who contribute each
year and help open doors for University
of Evansville
students.
