Campus Highlights

Comprehensive Campaign

Completion of First Steps:

• As of May 2002, the board of trustees had successfully accomplished its goal of covering 100% of the college’s internal debt.

Completion of Our Steps:

• The faculty/staff campaign kicked off during September & October 2002. While monetary goals are set by each division, the primary goal is simply participation. Thus far, 87% of the faculty and staff has participated raising $173,632.

The current total raised through the campaign is $8.8 million.

The Next Steps:

• During January and February 2003, recruiting will be completed for the steering committee.
• Throughout the campaign, the steering committee and Advancement Office will work with President Mannoia to develop and cultivate prospects for leadership gifts ($50,000+).
• July to September 2003 will bring electronic screening of the alumni database for leadership and major gift prospects.
• The steering committee will schedule and organize regional gatherings across the country for information and cultivation throughout 2003.
• The Foundation Approach Strategy will work throughout the campaign in identifying foundations that fund capital campaigns and present opportunities for Greenville College and then submit proposals according to a timeline.
• During July and August 2003, printed campaign materials, including brochures, will be completed.

The public campaign will kick off in the Spring of 2004.

Campus blueprints reveal plans for a new, 1300-seat auditorium, one of the needed capital improvements dependent on the success of the comprehensive campaign. The auditorium will provide the only facility able to hold the entire campus community, now that the college has outgrown the current Free Methodist Church sanctuary.
