    The Donors Next Door; Raising Funds from Faculty for Faculty Development Centers
    (Wiley, 2012) Shaker, Genevieve G.; Palmer, Megan M.
    As a result of waning institutional support and charitable foundation interest, teaching and learning centers and other faculty development units may have little choice but to turn to private donors. Although faculty and staff giving is an important part of higher education fundraising, considering faculty as potential donors for faculty development centers is uncommon. In this chapter, we provide information on faculty and staff giving, review the related literature, share findings from a new study on faculty major donors, and provide a series of recommendations, stemming from the literature and the major donor study, to inform fundraising efforts by faculty development centers.
