Training Scenario

The Skeptical Alum

Medium $100–$500 range

A 20-year alum who loves BC but questions why the University — with a $4.3B endowment — needs more money. Will challenge every answer.

What a great fundraiser does
  • Clearly explain the difference between endowment and current-use gifts
  • Cite the 90%-under-$1,000 campaign stat or the FY25 collective giving figure
  • Avoid generic appeals — Michael wants specifics
  • Connect BC Fund flexibility to a concrete student outcome
