Parents

 

The Wesleyan Fund

Parent fundraising volunteers are asked to make a contribution themselves and to follow up solicitation mailings with phone calls to selected parents, personally asking them to contribute to The Wesleyan Fund. Volunteers work closely with a member of the Wesleyan Fund staff, and will enhance the student fundraising effort.
  • Experience: must be a veteran Wesleyan parent
  • Expertise: none; just a willingness to chat with new parents about making gifts to Wesleyan (training materials are provided)
  • Commitment: 4-8 hours, depending upon the depth of your conversations
  • Goal: to secure additional gifts for The Wesleyan Fund through participation in phonathons and/or individual calling
  • Timeframe: fall and spring campaigns

How it works:

  • Indicate your interest in becoming a volunteer for The Wesleyan Fund
  • Receive your assignments from the staff volunteer coordinator
  • Make your calls
  • Return your gift forms to Wesleyan

Your commitment options...(4-8 hours)
