Dear Friends of Hunter Geography:

As many of you are aware, the tickets sold for each year’s awards dinner do not cover the entire cost of the event. In fact, ticket sales cover only about 60%, leaving the department to pay the remaining 40% from the Department of Geography’s Development Fund. This fund was designed to cover expenses that our departmental budget does not cover such as helping subsidize student attendance at professional conferences, refreshments for the GeoSeminar series, honoraria for guest speakers, etc.

The department’s Development Fund has been shrinking each year because we have not received donations equal to our expenditures. This year we are actively seeking individuals willing to underwrite a portion of the dinner. Your support helps ensure that Hunter Geography can continue to sponsor the annual awards dinner and support our students.

Yes, I would like to help underwrite the 2015 Department of Geography Annual Awards Dinner with a tax deductible contribution of:

Contribution        Level
○ $100                  Mt. Washington
○ $250                  Denali
○ $500                  Mt. Everest
○ $1,000               Mt. Olympus
○ $_________      other (mountain of your choice)

Anyone making a tax deductible contribution to the Department of Geography will have their name(s) listed in the dinner program. Deadline for inclusion in this year’s program is Friday, May 1st but contributions are accepted every day of the year.

Please make your check payable to Department of Geography, Hunter College. Your contribution will be formally acknowledged within the month of May, 2015.

 

My name(s) should appear in the program as follows:                                                                                     
(ex. Mary Louise Rodriguez, Mary and David Jones, Mary Louise Rodrigues and David Jones, Anonymous)
