5-Minute Interview: ‘Don’t Forget to Ask’
Communication is key for Bard College fundraising, and part of that means making the ask.
FS: What fundraising methods do you employ?
DP: We use everything. We use face-to-face solicitations; we use direct mail; we use events; we use phone-a-thons; we use proposals to institutional sources … so any way to ask, that’s what we do.
FS: Who do you solicit funds from?
DP: Because of the variety of Bard’s programs, it attracts not only the usual constituents in terms of alumni and parents of current students, but it attracts the community supporters; it attracts national and international foundations and national and international people.
