The Annual Report of
Giving, showing all donors to Independent Colleges of
Indiana, is part of ICI’s Indiana College Guidebook;
the last three editions are linked below for your
information (Adobe .pdf format). ICI’s general giving
categories—along with targeted funds and other options—are
included.
Investment
Opportunities through the Independent Colleges:
-
An undesignated grant to be
distributed equally to our 31 member institutions, to be
used at their discretion for priority needs such as
student aid, securing faculty, modernizing facilities,
improving technology, and other budget relieving
applications.
-
A
designated grant to be distributed to one or
more named member institutions, with at least three member
campuses receiving proceeds.
-
A
grant to be distributed equally to each member institution
specifically for their respective scholarship fund.
-
A
grant to be used in a competitive application
process, where, e.g., scholar in the name of the
donor would be designated at specific colleges pursuant to
selected locations or fields of interest. We invite donor
personnel to participate as judges.
-
A
grant targeted to a specific program area
such as political science, nursing, teaching, financial
literacy, access to education, or one of many such
subjects.
-
A
combination of the above:
For example, a gift might be made as an
undesignated grant, thereby connecting the donor to all 31
campuses, plus one or more scholarships to be awarded
through a competitive application process.
There
are many combinations of approaches that might be used. We
would be pleased to organize and administratively manage any
approach selected.
Additional
matters to consider:
1.
We distribute 100 percent of all contributions to
students for scholarships or to our member colleges—we do
not deduct any administrative costs.
2.
The easiest way to invest in independent higher
education is to simply write a check to Independent Colleges of Indiana
for an undesignated gift: many donors like to connect with all
31 campuses by investing in that manner.
3.
An internship might complement a scholarship
gift, giving the donor the opportunity to work with a student
and possible future employee.
4.
Our office will happily handle all administrative tasks,
including contacting appropriate media for publicity.
5.
We are flexible! We can modify any of the
above approaches to better suit the donor’s interests and
strategic focus.
