Annual Campaign LaunchWhere does LSMSA fit in your philanthropic goals this year?

Building on the success of the 25 Drive!, the LSMSA Foundation plans to continue the momentum by raising $125,000 this fiscal year. Aside from meeting the operational needs of the Foundation, your annual giving dollars will have an immediate impact on the school as it will be used to meet the pressing demands of academic programs that were cut in funding. Your unrestricted gift will also be used to support larger fundraising activities and promote further public relations opportunities.

The 2009 – 2010 Annual Giving Campaign is underway, and you will receive a letter in the next two weeks announcing the official launch of annual giving. Can’t wait till then? Use the annual giving form to make your first donation this year or use the button above to make your donation online.
