| Tufts receives $40 million gift |
|
| FPS congratulates long-time client Tufts University on today's gift announcement:
Bernard Gordon has committed $40 million to Tufts University’s School of Engineering to advance its engineering leadership education programs. Gordon’s gift to Tufts is the largest he has made to any institution, and he has now given nearly $200 million to support engineering education worldwide. His philanthropy pushes the university’s $1.2 billion Beyond Boundaries capital campaign, which is focused on providing resources to faculty and students, past the $1 billion mark. |
| “This century may fairly be considered the century of the engineer,” says Tufts President Lawrence S. Bacow. “Bernie Gordon has devoted his life to the idea that engineers should make the world a better place through their leadership. He knows how to get things done, and we are delighted that he appreciated kindred spirits at Tufts.”
“Tufts is committed to educating leaders to serve the common good,” says Provost and Senior Vice President Jamshed Bharucha. “Engineering leaders must be able to inspire teams of people to envision and realize technological goals in complex and fast-paced environments. They must understand not just the science but also the people they lead and the people for whom their technology is intended.” |

| In memoriam of Bill Hanrahan
|
| William B. Hanrahan (1939-2009) |
|
| We would like to express our condolences to the Hanrahan family on Bill's passing. Bill's impact on the philanthropic sector and innumerable colleagues and clients will be felt for many years to come. |
| From the CCS website: It is with tremendous sadness and an overwhelming sense of loss that the CCS family notifies you of the passing of our steadfast leader, dedicated colleague, and dear friend, William B. Hanrahan. Bill was deeply devoted to his family and was a loving husband to Terri; a proud father to Janine, Aileen, Erin, Bill, Jr., and stepson Nicholas; a doting grandfather to Stephen, Jr., Nicholas, Cody, Shannon, Samantha, Gerard, Jr., Sean, William III, and Patrick; and a dear friend to brother Tom, sister Kathleen, nephew Joe, and countless others in his extended family.
Bill waged a heroic battle against Lung Cancer, and true to form researched and visited the leading doctors and top medical centers, explored and underwent traditional and experimental treatments, all the while staying connected to friends, family and colleagues. In spite of his illness, Bill continued to work hard at CCS throughout his fight. He regretted that the disease limited his activities, but said that it offered him a new perspective that made him even more compassionate about those in need. Bill was passionate about his work and spent a lifetime dedicated to developing new ground breaking strategies for raising funds to support the causes that he held dear: humanitarian, education, religion, conservation, and healthcare. He was both teacher and student, and brought his deliberate thoughtfulness and questioning to every interaction. At his core, Bill was a true leader, inspiring dedication, fostering goodwill, and eliciting the best ideas and solutions among those who worked for and with him. |

| Changing places: Executives who step into the unknown |
| Lauren Foster |
| One change that people switching from the private to the public sector often have to come to terms with is the role of the board and how it affects the work culture... This is especially true when considering a position as the head of an organisation. “It is one thing to serve on a board of directors, it is another matter to serve a board,” says Gail Freeman, founder and president of Freeman Philanthropic Services, an executive recruitment business specialising in the non-profit sector. |
| The emphasis on mission is another factor: “Mission fulfilment needs to be factored into the bottom line,” says Ms Freeman. “One must be very mission-driven to work for a not-for-profit.”

| The Children's Storefront: Helping A NYC School, One Penny At A Time |

| The Harlem Miracle - Harlem Children's Zone |
| David Brooks |
| The fight against poverty produces great programs but disappointing results. You go visit an inner-city school, job-training program or community youth center and you meet incredible people doing wonderful things. Then you look at the results from the serious evaluations and you find that these inspiring places are only producing incremental gains.
That’s why I was startled when I received an e-mail message from Roland Fryer, a meticulous Harvard economist. It included this sentence: “The attached study has changed my life as a scientist.” |
| Fryer and his colleague Will Dobbie have just finished a rigorous assessment of the charter schools operated by the Harlem Children’s Zone. They compared students in these schools to students in New York City as a whole and to comparable students who entered the lottery to get into the Harlem Children’s Zone schools, but weren’t selected.
They found that the Harlem Children’s Zone schools produced “enormous” gains. The typical student entered the charter middle school, Promise Academy, in sixth grade and scored in the 39th percentile among New York City students in math. By the eighth grade, the typical student in the school was in the 74th percentile. The typical student entered the school scoring in the 39th percentile in English Language Arts (verbal ability). By eighth grade, the typical student was in the 53rd percentile...
It eliminated the black-white achievement gap. “The results changed my life as a researcher because I am no longer interested in marginal changes,” Fryer wrote in a subsequent e-mail. What Geoffrey Canada, Harlem Children’s Zone’s founder and president, has done is “the equivalent of curing cancer for these kids. It’s amazing. It should be celebrated. But it almost doesn’t matter if we stop there. We don’t have a way to replicate his cure, and we need one since so many of our kids are dying — literally and figuratively.”

| George A. Brakeley, Jr. (1916-2009)
|
| George A. Brakeley, Jr. |
| AFP |
| Our condolences to the Brakeley family.
George A. Brakeley Jr., a national leader in the philanthropic and fundraising consulting communities, died of natural causes on May 1, 2009 in Naples, FL, at the age of 93. He had lived in Bonita Springs, FL, for four years and earlier in Darien and New Canaan, CT.
Born in Washington, D. C. in 1916, he was the son of the late George A. Brakeley Sr. and Lillian Fay. He attended Chestnut Hill Academy in Philadelphia and was a 1938 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. A World War II veteran, he served in China and Indo China with the Corps of Engineers, leaving the service as a Captain.
During his long career as a philanthropic fundraising consultant in the United States and Canada, he was an innovator in philanthropy and fundraising, a leading spokesman for the consulting profession, and a founder of the then-American Association of Fund-Raising Counsel (now the Giving Institute). His career began with John Price Jones, Inc., of New York City, which was known at his retirement in 1983 as Brakeley, John Price Jones (today Brakeley Briscoe, Inc.). He also founded firms bearing his name in Canada and on the West Coast.
|
| Among his hundreds of internationally and nationally-renowned clients were Harvard University, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Institute, Yale University, Stanford University, McGill University, The Smithsonian Institution, Washington National Cathedral, Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the U.S. Olympic Committee. It is reckoned that, during his forty-four year career, he assisted his clients in raising in excess of $10 billion in today’s dollars. He was a Trustee of The Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress as well as the Washington National Cathedral..
He is survived by a son, George A. Brakeley III, of New Canaan CT and two daughters, Deborah of Vancouver, B.C., Canada and Joan, also of New Canaan; eight grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. His wife Roxana, daughter Linda, and sister Barbara predeceased him. The family has asked that gifts in lieu of flowers be made in his memory to The Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress, ATTN: Thomas M. Kirlin, 1020 19th St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036.

| TIME's managing editor Richard Stengel is calling for the next president to institute a bold investment in national service, including a ten-point national service plan that calls on all Americans to give a year of service and infuses American life and society with a strong ethic of service and idealism. City Year and other national service organizations participated in the development of TIME's national service plan. City Year's vision is that one day the most commonly asked question of an 18 year old should be "where will you do your service year?" TIME's cover story -- and most importantly, City Year's daily commitment to service and idealism -- help to turn that vision into a powerful reality. |

| Salary Negotiation |
| Tara Reese, Senior Project Manager |
| Tara Reese, Senior Project Manager, is quoted in the March/April 2006 issue of Advancing Philanthropy. |
| "What are the biggest mistakes women make when it comes to asking for more money? According to Tara M. Reese, senior project manager with Freeman Philanthropic Services, LLC in Boston, one of the biggest mistakes is not ever asking. Rebecca L. Worters, president of Capability Company in Raleigh, N.C., agrees. Think of the old fundraising adage, Why don't donors give? They aren't asked. Asking is the key, but too often women just accept a job. But if they don't ask, they don't get anywhere."

The process of recruitment is an opportunity for the institution to further define its culture and community, as well as its fundraising goals and methodologies. From these defining characteristics, the parameters of the position emerge, and the recruitment strategy is shaped accordingly." |
