Scholarship Questions to Consider • School versus student support • Size of grant awards: student and school • Creating access: impact on retention and enrollment • How to impact quality of leadership and academic program • Metrics for success
Non-Scholarship Questions • What outcomes are desired from Non-Scholarship support? • How does this support core effort of access to high quality Catholic Schools? • Where can CSF lead and make an impact?
Advancement Questions • How do we engage the Board and existing donors more in fundraising? • What is the cost of the allocations plan over the next five years and is there a plan to raise the resources necessary to achieve it? • How can CSF institutionalize corporate partnerships? • How does CSF continue to develop and cultivate new donors while actively managing concentration risk due to aging donors and relationships with Peter Lynch? • By what point should a planned giving program be established to ensure generational support?
3-5 Priorities • Maximize existing resources. • Develop a multi-year plan for scholarship and non-scholarship support with clear goals while making an immediate investment in the leadership pipeline. • Develop a comprehensive multi-year fundraising strategy to support the plan with clear Board and Corporate engagement and planned giving component that addresses identified concentration risks.
Specific Proposal for Discussion • CSF Board authorize the Allocations Committee, with review and consent of the Finance Committee, to approve by December 31, 2016, up to $600,000 for use in FY18 for leadership development program in collaboration with the Catholic Schools Office and Lynch Leadership Academy. • A multi-year plan to build a leadership pipeline will be presented for a discussion and vote at the March Board meeting. Any plan must have clear metrics for evaluating impact on access and school quality.
