Jacksonville University Presents Presidential Global Citizen Award
Inspiring a greater appreciation for the value of exploration and discovery, Jacksonville University honored Apollo 15 Commander Colonel David R. Scott with the 2023 Presidential Global Citizen Award. Col. Scott flew on Gemini VIII, was Command Module pilot on Apollo 9, and drove the first Lunar Rover on the moon as Commander of Apollo 15.
“Jacksonville University honors and celebrates scientific exploration for the advancement of humankind, and we work to encourage that spirit of discovery here on our campus,” said Jacksonville University President Tim Cost. “On those topics, we stand to learn a great deal from a man who spent hundreds of hours exploring space and the surface of the moon. Whether it’s studying another planet or our own oceans, there is still so much to discover about the world around us, and that knowledge carries limitless potential benefits to our collective future as a global society.”

"A Celebration of Hope, Love & Independence"
Canine Support Teams was excited to come together in-person again for the first time in 3 years to celebrate the graduating Service Dog Teams of the Classes of 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Valuable Resources for Fundraisers | |
|
A number of pundits have recently taken aim at the nonprofit sector, especially in heated battles about the deductibility of charitable donations.
Before jumping into the fray, we at The Angeletti Group have asked our colleagues and donors to take a deep breath and look at the bigger picture. As important as discussions are about the presence and lobbying power of the nonprofit sector, they distract from the biggest question concerning nonprofits: what must nonprofits focus on now to touch lives, change lives, and save lives? This whitepaper dives into five challenges facing the nonprofit sector.
| |
|
This whitepaper discusses broadening the definition of the annual fund.
Uncovering and understanding what motivates individuals to make their first gift, to sustain their support, and ultimately to increase their contributions is essential. Reinventing your annual fund so that potential and current donors can support their passion is fast becoming one of the most valuable instruments in the fundraising toolkit.
