I invite your participation in the 2009 Annual Giving Salary Survey.
This survey represents the most comprehensive collection of
compensation data specific to annual giving fundraising in education.
In
my work with CASE, with FundList, and with individual institutions, I
am often asked about comparative annual giving salary data. While
"annual giving" is often identified among a number of
advancement-related occupations, "annual giving" today means an increasingly diverse set of job skills and responsibilities. This survey seeks to provide as clear an apples-to-apples comparison as
possible of the many types of annual-giving-related positions and their
salaries today.
There is no cost for participating in the survey, and participants will receive a free summary survey report of findings in May. The survey has 19 questions over 3 Web pages, and will take approximately 7 minutes to complete.
Individual responses will be kept completely confidential.
We request an institution name solely to safeguard against duplicate
entries, and we request a contact email address (any email) so that we
can share a copy of the salary survey report results with you. Also,
categories (location, type of institution, etc.) will only be
reported after a minimum of three responding institutions in each
category. As a result, individual respondents will not be conspicuous
by themselves.
While this survey is primarily geared toward U.S. educational institutions, schools outside the U.S. or other not-for-profits are encouraged to complete the survey and receive the survey report. Please convert salary information to U.S. dollars and use "other" in questions where appropriate.
Student employees, including student phonathon callers, should not complete this survey.
Begin the survey here.
Thanks for your participation, and for all you do for your institution. We look forward to sharing the results with you in May.
