During my first year of fundraising at the Wolf Call Center, parents and alumni gave gifts exceeding $250,000 for student programs and services at the University of Nevada, Reno, the highest received donations since the tier-1 university was founded in 1874. After my first four weeks, I received over $10,000 in pledges. I engaged and built strong relationships with parents and alumni, encouraging them to give back to the university. Over a year later, the Wolf Call Center has received greater than a quarter-million dollars designated to in-need programs and services supporting over 21,000 students.
