Book Description
Throughout the literature, HBCU alumni non-donors were perceived to possess the opposite characteristics of alumni that do give financially. In order to further examine the lack of alumni giving at HBCUs, this study evaluated previously identified characteristics of HBCU alumni that choose not to financially support their alma maters. The purpose of this study was to examine how income, student experience, religious charitable giving, alumni perceptions, and alumni engagement, relate to alumni giving at HBCUs. An explanatory correlational design was used to address the research questions posed in this study. The 4,500 person sample, which consisted of donors and non-donors, was selected from two HBCUs using a stratified random sampling process. Data collection occurred through an 18-question online survey. The large majority of the participants were donors, while 44% of the non-donors reported not being contributors due to a limited discretionary income. The participants were overwhelmingly satisfied with their academic experience, extracurricular experience, decision to attend their alma mater, and post-graduation success. In addition, a large percentage of the participants attended a church and made charitable contributions on a weekly basis. All of the relationships were found to be statically significant (p

Book Description
The continued existence of several private historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) has been threatened due to limited financial resources. Several of these institutions are on probation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) or in jeopardy of losing their accreditation due to financial position. Similarly, HBCUs have been dependent primarily on the government, the church, and benevolent philanthropists for funding. As government support of the private HBCU decreases, and as the economy worsens, competition for funding sources increases. As a result, these institutions focus their attention towards resource development and philanthropic support. The number one source of financial support for most colleges is the alumni (Yates, 2001). Unlike predominantly White colleges, HBCUs have not had a long history of generous alumni giving (Ramsey, 1992). Hence, if HBCUs can facilitate giving from their alumni, the financial condition of these institutions may improve. This study examined African-American alumni perceptions regarding giving for two private HBCUs located in the Southeastern United States. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors influencing African-American alumni perceptions regarding giving and how these factors facilitate or impede participation in giving to the HBCU. For this case study, data were collected through interviewing African-American alumni, attending alumni association meetings, and examining web-pages and other documents at the respective colleges. The findings under the lens of cultural, critical race and institutional theories (Ladson-Billings & Tate, 1995; Outlaw, 1996) revealed factors influenced by Western social construction of culture, race, class, and power which have, consequently, impacted African-American alumni participation in giving to HBCUs. The conclusions and implications of this study are significant enough to warrant further investigation into the ramifications of African-Am.

Book Description
"Over the past 25 years more than 12 American public and private historically black colleges and universities, HBCUs, closed their doors, mostly the result of a lack of alumni support. During the same time period, the number of alumni gifts to non HBCUs increased. HBCUs continue to look for ways to motivate alumni giving. Using a literature review, key informant interviews, and a focus group, this research was conducted to determine whether using segmented and strategically worded direct-mail appeals could be an effective development strategy to inspire major gifts from HBCU alumni as suggested by researchers Russ Alan Prince and Karen Maru File in their book 'The Seven Faces of Philanthropy' who posit that donors respond favorably to certain key emotive and persuasive words based on the philanthropic 'face' each exhibits. While the idea of crafting an appeal letter to a donor works in theory, most HBCU development offices do not have the time or resources to personalize each solicitation, even to their small alumni bases. Conversely, HBCU alumni prefer to be personally cultivated and rarely make a major gift in response to a written solicitation, regardless of crafty wording"--Abstract, p. 6.

Book Description
'Altruism at HBCUs' examines to what extent historically black colleges and universities are cultivating alumni relationships by promoting altruistic behavior in student involvement, institutional relations, socialization, customer relations, and fundraising principles. Furthermore, this essential book discusses how these salient themes impact alumni giving at HBCUs. Primarily, studies on alumni giving are monolithic and one-sided focusing on factors that influence or deter alumni giving. Some of those factors include socio-economic status, race, gender, time since graduation or comparison studies of predominately white institutions and historically black institutions. Few empirical studies have focused on the dichotomous relationship building efforts between institutions and alumni donors until Dr. Henson's study, 'Altruism at HBCUs: Cultivating Institutional Relationships to Positively Impact Alumni Giving.' -Ubiquitous Press
