As most of you know, the Virginia Wesleyan College
Faculty/Staff Campaign concluded on October 30. I am pleased to report that we ended the
campaign with participation from 72% of our faculty and staff, surpassing our
goal of 70% and outpacing last year's participation rate of 67%!
Thank you to the 208 members of our faculty and staff who
demonstrated their support for the College by making gifts and pledges totaling
$51,951. Your support of the Annual Fund provides students with high impact,
independent learning opportunities. The
generous provisions you have provided are greatly appreciated and serve as a
fine example of your commitment to Virginia Wesleyan.
