Gifts and Grants

The President reported that private giving to the University and its related foundations stood at $113million for the current fiscal year through February 29, 2004. If the extraordinary gift of over $110million from the Harrison estate last year is excluded from the reckoning, the base rate of the University’s fundraising this fiscal year has increased by 30% over the same period last year.

He noted that the College, the School of Engineering, the School of Architecture, the Jefferson Scholars Foundation, the Curry School, the UVa Fund and the College at Wise report substantial increases in giving this fiscal year.

Turning to specific gifts, he reported an anonymous gift of $6million in pledge payments for the Arena Project, for the Environmental Sciences Building Fund, and to the Darden School Foundation for the Batten Entrepreneurial Leadership and Capital Campaign – Phase II. Mr. Daniel M. Meyers, a friend of the University from Massachusetts, gave $5.54million to the Curry School to be used towards the construction of a new building. Mr. Albert Small, an alumnus and a former Member of the Board of Visitors, gave a $2million gift-in-kind to the University Library; the gift is a 10% undivided interest in a first edition of the first printing of the Declaration of Independence. An anonymous donor has made a $2million pledge payment for the Carr’s Hill Arts Grounds.

Among new pledges are $12.5million to the Medical School to support construction of a Medical Education Building; $1.2million from the John M. Olin Foundation to the Law School Foundation for the John M. Olin Program in Law & Economics; and a $1million pledge to the College Foundation, for unrestricted use, from Mr. Terrence D. Daniels of Greenwood.
