Lawrence A. Davis, Jr. CHANCELLOR

November 4, 2010 Dear Alumni and Friends: You were part of making the 2009 – 2010 fiscal year truly outstanding. Together we have much to celebrate and much to take pride in for the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB).

Our increase in enrollment, the academic prowess of our students, and our sports teams’ achievements were among the things that set us apart from and ahead of other institutions of higher learning. Many of you were there to experience first-hand some of the events that were history making for our beloved institution. And as we triumph in the UAPB’s moments of glory, I pause to thank you for the individual role you played in making this past glorious year a reality. You are among the giants upon whose shoulders future generations of leaders will stand.

With our many successes in the past year, the year that is now upon us and future years will bear greater challenges to measuring up to and exceeding the accomplishments of 2009 – 2010. Yet, I am confident that with your on-going support, commensurate with our need to excel, we will not fail to continue to make progress.

We are grateful to have individuals as committed as you are for you are truly our leaves of gold.

Sincerely, Lawrence A. Davis, Jr. CHANCELLOR

Larry Cooper

CHAIRMAN UAPB Foundation Fund Board November 4, 2010 Dear Alumni, Friends, and Supporters:

On behalf of the Foundation Fund Board, I thank you for your contributions to the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB). You have truly been an integral part of our fundraising success.

In tough economic times such as we experienced the past year, it is not unexpected for fundraising revenue to dip drastically. Because of you, we did not have a significant decrease in revenue from private sources, and we were able to continue to positively impact the lives of students attending UAPB. Some of you may have been first time donors, many more of you give year-after-year-after-year; you reaffirm your commitment to assure that our students receive the best higher education possible.

As chairman for the UAPB Foundation Fund Board, I have the privilege of serving with a group of individuals who are among the top professionals in their fields. They work hard in a variety of ways to increase financial support for UAPB. You are the reason we succeed. You answer repeatedly answer the call for help and for this we are grateful individually and collectively. We are proud to be a part of the success that you make possible.

Again thank you; please continue to be a part of the accomplishments of our students.

Sincerely,

Larry Cooper Chairman UAPB Foundation Fund Board

Annual Donors Report 路 July 2009 - June 2010 3

Foreword

Fundraising initiatives at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff address institutional funding needs with an emphasis on three major areas (unrestricted funds, scholarship, and athletics) that significantly impact the ability of UAPB to deliver educational excellence.

The results of our fundraising efforts are reported herein.

Annual Giving Drive

Annual contributions for the period July 1, 2008– June 30, 2009, totaled $1,702,295.

Some of our donors designated their gifts consistent with their interests; others chose to make unrestricted gifts so that unanticipated student needs could be met. As a result, the Annual Giving Drive consisted of several successful initiatives. Though all specific initiatives that gave an impetus to our fundraising efforts are too numerous to mention here, special note is made of a few that are far-reaching and long term:

Torii Hunter Baseball Complex After several years of effort, plans for the baseball facility are well underway with a $500,000 pledge from baseball great Torii Hunter. During the 2008 – 2009 fundraising year, $157,788 was contributed from private sources. Groundbreaking for the complex is anticipated fall 2009.

Dorothy Magett Fiddmont New Millennium Leaders The Fiddmont Leaders initiative remains a strong impetus for scholarship support of our students. The Class of 1948, with a donation of nearly $$40,000, became a Silver Level Fiddmont Leader group in 2008 – 2009.

All donations to the fund from October 1, 2007 – September 30, 2012, can be matched dollar-for-dollar by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Postsecondary Education/HBCU Title III Initiatives. (Please note that, donors do not qualify for higher giving level because of the match made by the Title III funds and their employers’ matching gifts.)

The following are levels of commitment individuals and groups may choose to support: Individual Classes & Alumni Chapters Entry Level $2,000 $10,000 Bronze Support Level $3,000 $20,000 Silver Support Level $4,000 $30,000 Gold Support Level $5,000 $40,000 Platinum Support Level $6,000 $50,000

Phonathon 2009 The 8th Annual Phonathon in June - August 2009, resulted in over $136,000 in gifts/pledges as of June 30th. Telephone calls were made to approximately 12,000 alumni and friends. Highlights of the phonathon as of June 30, 2009 were: • 1,204 individuals made specific pledges (nearly 65% above last year pledge level); • 653 individuals made a pledge but did not commit to a specific amount, (nearly 60% above last year’s amount); and • As of June 30th, with two months remaining for the Phonathon, $136,000 had been received in pledges, and a fourth of that amount had been paid.

6 Accentuatiting the Positive: Leaves of Gold

Creative Giving In 2006, Dr. Herbert Carter and his wife Virginia Carter expanded their various forms of financial support to include a charitable remainder trust (CRT). Such giving, though common at many institutions of higher learning, are rare at UAPB. The CRT, established by the Carters was the first of which UAPB has been informed in recent times.

In 2008 – 2009 two other individuals chose similar forms of support to UAPB. Mrs. Gladys Turner Finney established a Charitable Gift Annuity and Mr. John E. Smith set-up a Charitable Remainder Uni-trust. Both Finney and Smith have something else in common with the Carters: They are strong supporters of UAPB and give strongly to multiple causes.

Special Initiatives The desire to help students at UAPB in various ways resulted in the development and implementation of new strategies: • Neal Blakely Writing Initiative is an effort to increase writing proficiency of our students by expanding the assistance offered to students in the The Viralene J. Coleman Computerized Writing Center. Through a bequest of over $210,000 from the late Cornell Scott in memory of Neal Blakely, the Center will be able to expand its hours and the services offered to students.

• Scholarships of Hope (renamed the Lifeline Scholarship) is a fund developed to provide students in dire need of financial assistance, the opportunity to attend college at UAPB. The Lifeline Initiative was developed through the efforts of Dr. Dorothy Magett Fiddmont, (Chairperson, Special Projects Committee of the UAPB Foundation Fund Board), with input from Gralon Johnson (2008 – 2009 UAPB SGA President), and support from Larry Cooper (Chairman, UAPB Foundation Fund Board) and Sam Staples (President, UAPB/AM&N National Alumni Association). The goal is to raise $500,000 that will be matched dollar-for-dollar with Title III federal funds. The $500,000 is projected to come from the following sources: Alumni - $400,000, UAPB employees - $75,000, and students - $25,000.

As of June 30, 2009, the following accomplishments has been achieved with collective efforts: • Chancellor Davis agreed to allow federal grant funds to be used to match dollar-for- dollar all funds raised for this initiative.

• Fifteen (15) alumni chapters have made firm commitments to participate - North Carolina, Eudora, Camden, Washington D.C., Gateway, Houston, Pine Bluff/Jefferson County, Dallas/Ft. Worth, Austin, St. Francis County, Atlanta, Pulaski County, Greater Kansas City, Detroit, and Southern California.

• Dr. Dorothy Magett Fiddmont and Mr. Nathan & Mrs. Wanda Garrett have committed to become supporters at the $10,000 Ambassador Level.

• Through the efforts of Larry Cooper (Chairperson of the UAPB Foundation Fund Board) the UAPB Foundation Fund Board has adopted the Lifeline Scholarships as a top priority for fundraising; VeLois Bowers, Chair of the Scholarship Committee is developing strategies to implement at Homecoming 2009.

• The Class of 1969 (through the effort of Larry Cooper and other key individuals) is making a significant commitment that will be announced at the Homecoming 2009 assembly.

• A group of students known as the PRIDE, have monthly fundraising projects, all proceeds

of which are credited to Lifeline Scholarships. •

M4 President Barak Obama Inaugural Parade Performance was made possible by the generous donations of over 2000 individuals—alumni, friends, businesses/corporations, foundations, and one time donors who wanted to help M4. The number of donations received in a two week period equaled the number of transactions the Office of University Relations and Development normally processes in one year.

Through your contribution, you joined in becoming an agent for continued progress at UAPB. Whether you chose to give to a particular cause, program, or activity or designated your gift as unrestricted, you made a positive difference in the future of our students.

8 Accentuatiting the Positive: Leaves of Gold

Your Generosity In Action In 2008 - 2009 your gifts accomplished much at UAPB.

Your donations were used for our students directly and indirectly: • Over $600,000 was made available to students in the form of loans, awards, and scholarships as a result of donations from you; • Hundreds of students were able to participate in extracurricular activities and attend career development activities on and off campus; • Our debate team was revived and made a significant showing in competitions; • Our cheerleaders participated in a competition on MTV, make an outstanding showing and ranked high in the finish; • Our M4 Band gave a marvelous performance in President Barak Obama’s Inaugural Parade; • Our faculty members were able to purchase instructional materials and take part in professional development activities that broaden the learning experiences of our students in a very positive way; • More students than ever before (in the past two decades) were recruited—had the largest fresh man enrollment (by percentage) in Arkansas in fall 2008, and we anticipate an even larger en rollment for fall 2009; • We were able to continue our upgrade of dormitories to accommodate the increase in enrolment; and • Overall, UAPB’s physical plant continues to experience unprecedented growth—it has never looked so good!

You contributed to our successes and for this we are grateful!

Corporate and Foundation Matching Gift Program

The University continues to be grateful for the support of its corporate partners. The companies and corporate foundations listed on this page are those that have provided contributions to the University and its Foundation through their matching gift program. The University urges its alumni and friends to investigate the matching gift program that may be offered through their companies. Some companies offer programs, which will match one-for-one, two-for-one, or three-for-one. The program may even extend to the employee’s spouse.

This is an excellent way to multiply gift dollars and have a greater impact on academic programs. To take advantage of a company’s matching gift policy, an employee may obtain a form from their company’s corporate giving office and send it in along with their gift.

AT&T AXA Foundation Bell South Corporation Boeing Company Caterpillar Foundation Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Entergy Corporation Exxon Mobil Foundation Ford Matching Gift Program Freddie Mac Foundation Genentech General Electric GM Corporation Honeywell International IBM Corporation International Paper
