Dear Classmates,
Enclosed you will find the most current status for the Class’ Fund Raising efforts in support of our designated 45th Reunion Gift to the Academy and the Nation, the National Conference on Ethics in America (NCEA). As you are aware, we are attempting to create a $4.1 Million Endowment to support the conference needs for the foreseeable future, which the class committee perceives as the remainder of our lives.
To date, thanks to the generous support of many of you (30% of the class), we are about ½way there. This is both encouraging and yet, at the same time, disappointing. Seventy (70) % of our class has remained on the sidelines. If you are someone who has given, thank you very much. If you have not as yet pledged your support, get up off the couch and get yourself onto the playing field. We want 100% of the class involved! No gift is too small. We need everyone to give something so the NCEA Endowment truly is a Gift from the entire Class of 70, not just a select few.
Also, I urge you get involved in the conference if you have the time or interest. Pat Sculley put out a call for volunteers a little over a week ago to help in the Admin & Planning of the NCEA. If you didn’t see Pat’s request, let us know and we’ll get you a copy. If you are interested in attending the NCEA (16-20 OCT @ USMA), please let Pat know so we can slot you in the work group of your choice.
Enclosed you will find the most current versions of:
1. The Giving Wall
2. A PPT summary including performance ranks of the Regiments, Top 10 Companies, and Bottom 5 Companies….for both $s contribution and % Classmates Participating.
I trust this finds you and your families happy, well, and enjoying the last days of summer.
SWI,
Gil
