Hundreds of UWindsor faculty, staff, and retirees responded to an email questionnaire about their views of the University’s Annual Giving Program, which will help shape its work in raising support for students and campus projects, says co-ordinator Nicole Broderick.

“I am really grateful to everyone who took the time to fill in our survey,” she says. “We heard from so many: those who give to the campaign and those who don’t. That feedback will help us to improve our efforts.”

Broderick says she was particularly heartened by two results.

“We learned that our contributors are motivated by a desire to help our students,” she says. “And many respondents expressed a wish to learn more about the Annual Giving Program and the impact it makes on student success.”

Her office will use the survey results to better address the interests of campus employees.

Eyob Woldemichael, an application programmer in Information Technology Services, won a $50 Amazon gift card in a random draw for all respondents.
