THE ANNUAL FUND:

The New School encourages alumni to make gifts to the annual fund of the school attended. Gifts to the annual fund allow for maximum flexibility in directing resources to the school's greatest needs, such as providing scholarships, enhancing facilities, hiring great faculty, and developing new academic programs. A gift to your school's annual fund also helps the university's alumni gift participation rate, which is important for several reasons. Alumni gift participation is a factor in The New School's U.S. News and World Report ranking. For better or worse, many people judge the stature of a school on this ranking of which five percent is based on percentage of alumni giving. The more gifts from alumni we receive, the better we look! More recognition will help us attract great teachers and students, which will help build a strong school, and one you can be proud to have attended. Also, many major donors, individuals and foundations, look at how many alumni are making gifts when deciding whether or not to support us. Your gift, no matter how small, can go a long way.
