Reach for the Stars: The 2014 Fundraising Professionals of the Year Awards Winners

From a staff of six individuals in 1985, the development office has grown under Mulvey's leadership to more than 125 staff members. From 1991 to 1999, it was reorganized to increase operational efficiency, a new planned-giving program was created and, in 1995, a $151 million capital campaign was successfully completed in two and a half years. In 2000, the development office increased philanthropic giving to more than $100 million a year, an achievement it has matched and exceeded every year since. For example, in FY2009, development raised $184.8 million; in FY2010, $340.9 million (with a transformational gift of $150 million); and in FY2011, $200.7 million.
