Chair's Message
This past year has been an exciting time to serve as Chair of the Board of Directors of the Rowan University Foundation, and I look forward to the challenges and achievements that the coming year will bring. I am privileged to work with this group of accomplished and dedicated individuals to help the University carry out its mission of enriching the lives of those in the campus community and surrounding region.
Since the Foundation’s formation in 1983, the role of private funding has become increasingly critical to Rowan’s progress as an institution. I am deeply committed to helping attract the support that the University needs to fulfill its role as a twenty-first century leader.
Through the generosity of alumni and friends, the stewardship of the Foundation Board and extensive fundraising efforts with the public and private sectors, the Foundation provides the educational enhancements that give Rowan its margin of excellence. Through diligent management of the endowment funds, the Foundation provides vital funds for scholarships, research and program funding.
Your support opens a world of possibilities for Rowan’s students. I invite you to explore the many ways to become more involved in the life of the University, to share our success and invest in our bright future.
On behalf of the Rowan University Foundation, my sincere thanks.
Alyce Parker ’74
Chair, Rowan University Foundation Board
