Department of Development

n.d.

Reporting to the Vice-Principal (Advancement), the Department of Development is responsible for exploring and developing philanthropic support for the University. It consists of four areas, each led by a director: Annual Giving, Planned Giving, Major Gifts and Faculty Development, and Donor Relations and Stewardship. Annual Giving involves generating support for immediate funding needs through two main programs: direct mail and telefundraising. More than 100,000 alumni, parents, faculty/staff, students, and friends of Queen's University are contacted annually through these programs. The Planned Giving program involves promoting and arranging donations from wills, bequests, annuities, and other forms of structured giving. Major Gifts and Faculty Development is responsible for identifying, cultivating, and soliciting corporate and individual donors for large gifts; identifying marketable projects in individual faculties, and encouraging alumni involvement through faculty advisory councils. Donor Relations and Stewardship is responsible for protecting gifts made to Queen's and stewarding those who give them in a way that responds to the donor's expectations. Through a variety of programs such as naming opportunities and donor events, Donor Relations and Stewardship helps to cultivate existing donors for additional gifts and also foster long-term relationships between these donors, their families, and the University. The Department of Development is located in Summerhill. In addition, a number of development officers are assigned to individual faculty locations on campus.
