We are one of several departments within the Development Vice Presidency.
The purpose of our office is to raise funds from foundations in support of
projects and programs at Dartmouth College. We are charged with overseeing and
coordinating all fund-raising approaches by the College and professional
schools to foundations. To do that:
- We coordinate and cultivate institutional relations with private
foundations in collaboration with faculty, administrators, and Development
colleagues throughout the undergraduate college and professional schools.
- We assist faculty and administrators in identifying those foundations that
are most likely to support their initiatives, and advise them on the best way
to approach the funders.
- We offer extensive research assistance and resources, as well as strategic
guidance for approaches. In many cases we make initial inquiries. We also
provide support for proposal writing, and assistance with stewardship reports
to those foundations that have supported Dartmouth.
- We provide information about giving programs, including any restrictions on
the number or timing of proposals from Dartmouth. We often connect people
across campus with similar interests, leveraging the projects.
- We coordinate efforts with the Office of Sponsored Projects (OSP), which
primarily oversees relationships with federal and state agencies, non-profit
organizations that are disease-specific (e.g., American Cancer Society), and
technology transfer partners. (OSP is a separate department within the
jurisdiction of the Office of the Provost, while the Vice President for
Development reports to the President. Please visit the affiliated offices page
to identify the appropriate contact for your area of the College.)
Our office does not handle or assist with outside fellowships (e.g.,
Fulbright, National Endowment of the Arts, etc.)
