Spotlight on Giving

100 Percent Board Giving!

Mark Shanda

For the second year in a row, 100% of the Institute's officers and board of directors have made the choice to give not only of their time, but all have donated funds to the various activities of the Institute. 100% Board participation in giving is a key metric examined by numerous funding agencies when grants are being considered.

While USITT's board has never been approached with the minimum "Give/Get" expectation of many other not-for-profit boards, all have seen the value of making their personal choice to give and the impact such funds have on the Institute. We continue to wisely use our various funds to support research, member opportunity, and to reduce costs for other member services and we hope that you too will join with the board's enthusiasm in making your own financial gift to advance the Institute.

Mark Shanda, USITT President
