Dear IRSC Family:

 

Although the above quote was originally penned by Benjamin F. Fairless many years ago, the words continue to ring true.  As members of the Indian River State College team, you are vital to our "Formula for Success”, which is the theme for the Foundation’s 2011 Employee Appeal.

 

Last year, employees generously donated almost $60,000 to support scholarships, planned gifts, educational buildings and other critical initiatives at IRSC that directly benefit our students, faculty, staff, and the community. 

 

For 2011-12, we will continue raising funds to enhance the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Center at the St. Lucie West Campus.  You may also choose to support another area of need, such as scholarships or the Lifelong Learning Institute Endowment. 

 

Donating is easy and you can do so through payroll deduction, check, cash, credit card, or online.  Please complete the donor form and return it to the Foundation.  Please note, for payroll deduction, you must sign a new form each year, and payroll deductions will begin in January of 2012.

 

Every gift received will be recognized in the Foundation’s online Honor Roll, and gifts to support the STEM Center will be listed on its Wall of Honor.  First 200 to sign-up get a complimentary TEAM IRSC 2011 coffee mug.

 

You are an essential ingredient to IRSC’s Formula for Success.  Your support, at any level, is greatly appreciated.  Thank you for your dedication and ongoing commitment to the success of IRSC and our students. 

 

Sincerely,
