| PART III LINE 4A NARRATIVE CONTINUATION | WHO WE ARE AT THE NIU FOUNDATION, WE PURSUE EXCEPTIONAL OUTCOMES FOR OUR DONORS, OUR UNIVERSITY, AND THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THE NIU FOUNDATION IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ENTITY THAT ENGAGES FRIENDS AND ALUMNI AND SECURES AND MANAGES GIFTS IN SUPPORT OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY. IN JULY OF 2020, THE NIU FOUNDATION AND NIU ALUMNI ASSOCIATION MERGED UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF THE NIU FOUNDATION, A STRATEGIC MOVE THAT HAS STRENGTHENED THEIR LONGSTANDING PARTNERSHIP. THIS MERGER MAKES THE NIU FOUNDATION OF TODAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALUMNI ENGAGEMENT AS WELL AS FUNDRAISING. CREATING LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR HARDWORKING, DEDICATED STUDENTS AND FACULTY IS THE NIU FOUNDATION'S HIGHEST PRIORITY. EACH YEAR, THOUSANDS OF ALUMNI AND DONORS JOIN US IN THIS ENDEAVOR. CONNECTING OUR ALUMNI NIU HAS A FIERCELY PROUD ALUMNI BASE OF WELL OVER 240,000 HUSKIES. THEY BOAST ACCOMPLISHED CAREERS IN A DIVERSE ARRAY OF PROFESSIONS AND PRIMARILY RESIDE IN THE NORTHERN ILLINOIS REGION. THESE GRADUATES CREATE DYNAMIC PROFESSIONAL NETWORKS FOR STUDENTS AND FACULTY AND PROVIDE ECONOMIC VITALITY TO THE REGION AND STATE. ALUMNI ALSO REPRESENT A VAST PIPELINE OF SUPPORT FOR THE UNIVERSITY. IN FY21, THE NIU FOUNDATION HOSTED MORE THAN 65 VIRTUAL ENGAGEMENT EVENTS SUCH AS MEETINGS WITH NIU PRESIDENT LISA FREEMAN AND ALUMNI PANEL DISCUSSIONS ON A RANGE OF RELEVANT TOPICS. THESE EVENTS ALLOWED US TO CONNECT WITH ALUMNI IN RECORD NUMBERS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. IN FACT, A TOTAL OF 3,289 ALUMNI ATTENDED EVENTS IN FY21, 1,495 OF WHOM WERE FIRST-TIME EVENT ATTENDEES. FUNDING THE FUTURE THE NIU FOUNDATION WORKS TO FIND THE INTERSECTION OF DONORS' PHILANTHROPIC GOALS AND THE STRATEGIC PRIORITIES OF THE UNIVERSITY. THE NIU FOUNDATION MEASURES THE PRODUCTIVITY OF ITS FUNDRAISING EFFORTS ACROSS ALL AREAS OF THE UNIVERSITY THROUGH "NEW GIFTS AND COMMITMENTS," WHICH INCLUDES GIFTS OF CASH, GIFTS-IN-KIND, PLEDGES, UNREALIZED BEQUESTS, AND OTHER PLANNED GIFT COMMITMENTS. IN FY21, DONORS PROVIDED $15.4 MILLION IN NEW GIFTS AND COMMITMENTS. THIS NUMBER INCLUDES DONATIONS MADE THROUGH TWO HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL VIRTUAL GIVING CAMPAIGNS, HUSKIES UNITED AND THOUSANDS STRONG, WHICH BROUGHT IN $1,025,452 AND $2,007,235 RESPECTIVELY. SCHOLARSHIPS: THE PATH FOR SOCIAL MOBILITY ACCORDING TO A RECENT REPORT FROM THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION, NIU WAS AMONG A SELECT GROUP OF THE NATION'S PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES CITED FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY PRODUCING IMPORTANT RESEARCH WHILE ALSO ENHANCING THE SOCIAL MOBILITY OF ITS STUDENTS FROM LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS: THE TWO MOST CELEBRATED PURPOSES OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC UNIVERSITY SYSTEM. IN FACT, NIU RECEIVED THE HIGHEST RANK OF ALL PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. NIU TAKES PRIDE IN PROVIDING AN ACCESSIBLE, AFFORDABLE, AND HIGH-QUALITY EDUCATION TO TALENTED STUDENTS FROM UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. IF FACT, MORE THAN HALF OF NIU STUDENTS ARE THE FIRST IN THEIR FAMILIES TO ATTEND COLLEGE, ONE IN FOUR STUDENTS ARE FROM AN UNDERREPRESENTED GROUP, AND 86% RELY ON SOME FORM OF FINANCIAL AID. WHILE COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING IN ILLINOIS, HAVE SEEN DECLINING ENROLLMENT RATES FOR BLACK STUDENTS, NIU RECORDED ITS SIXTH STRAIGHT YEAR OF INCREASED AFRICAN AMERICAN ENROLLMENT IN THE FALL 2021 FRESHMAN CLASS. IN FACT, 37.6% OF ENTERING FRESHMEN WERE BLACK (UP 3% POINTS OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR), THE HIGHEST THAT FIGURE HAS BEEN IN UNIVERSITY HISTORY. ASIAN STUDENT ENROLLMENT WAS AT 4%, WHILE HISPANIC ENROLLMENT ACCOUNTED FOR 21% OF THE INCOMING CLASS. NIU IS WORKING TOWARD A GOAL OF BECOMING A DESIGNATED HISPANIC SERVING INSTITUTION (HSI) WITHIN THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS. SCHOLARSHIPS PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN MAKING THE DREAM OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION A REALITY FOR MANY OF THESE STUDENTS. THIS SUPPORT HAS ALSO PROVEN KEY TO PERSISTENCE, HELPING STUDENTS CROSS THE FINISH LINE TO BECOME PROUD HUSKIE ALUMNI. IN FACT, 9 OUT OF 10 STUDENTS WHO RECEIVE NIU FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS GRADUATE. THE FOUNDATION HAS BEEN WORKING TOWARD A GOAL OF RAISING $50M IN SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT BY THE END OF 2023. AT CLOSE OF FY21, WE WERE ABOUT HALFWAY TO THAT GOAL, HAVING RAISED $23,901,789. $6.4M OF THOSE DONATIONS WERE MADE IN FY21. IN THE PAST 10 YEARS, THE NIU FOUNDATION HAS AWARDED MORE THAN $27M IN SCHOLARSHIPS TO DESERVING STUDENTS. IN FY21 NIU FOUNDATION PROVIDED $2,789,634 TO STUDENTS FOR SCHOLARSHIPS AND AID. FACULTY WHO TEACH AND DO NIU'S NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED FACULTY ARE DEDICATED TO ADVANCING THEIR ACADEMIC DISCIPLINES AND ADDRESSING REAL-WORLD PROBLEMS. EXAMPLES OF CURRENT PROJECTS INCLUDE: - BUILDING A SYSTEM TO CONVERT CARBON DIOXIDE WASTE INTO FUEL - CREATING A NOVEL PEDIATRIC HEARING AID - ADVANCING LONG-RANGE SEVERE WEATHER FORECASTS - DEVELOPING A SPANISH-LANGUAGE MOBILE APP TO TREAT DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY - ASSISTING IN THE RECOVERY OF AN ENDANGERED TURTLE SPECIES - STUDYING THE COMBINED USE OF ROBOTS AND VIRTUAL REALITY IN CHILDREN'S LEARNING IN ADDITION, DOZENS OF NIU FACULTY HAVE PIVOTED ASPECTS OF THEIR RESEARCH TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC INCLUDING TESTING WASTEWATER TO BETTER MEASURE THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 THROUGHOUT THE AREA AS WELL AS NEW LESS-INVASIVE TESTING METHODS. SUCH PROJECTS PROVIDE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS TO PARTICIPATE IN CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH ALONGSIDE FACULTY WHO ARE LEADERS IN THEIR FIELDS. THESE OPPORTUNITIES ARE A HALLMARK OF THE UNDERGRADUATE EXPERIENCE AT NIU. FROM THE MOMENT THEY STEP ON CAMPUS, STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO APPLY WHAT THEY'VE LEARNED IN THE CLASSROOM TO THEIR OWN FACULTY GUIDED RESEARCH OR ARTISTRY PROJECT. WORKING CLOSELY WITH THEIR FACULTY MENTORS, STUDENTS PRESENT AT CONFERENCES, WIN AWARDS FOR THEIR RESEARCH, AND HAVE ATTRACTED MEDIA ATTENTION WITH THEIR FINDINGS. PRIVATE DONATIONS HELP MAKE THESE EXPERIENCES POSSIBLE BY SUPPORTING INITIATIVES SUCH AS RESEARCH ROOKIES, A PROGRAM THAT LINKS FIRST-YEAR AND SOPHOMORE STUDENTS WITH FACULTY MENTORS IN THEIR AREAS OF INTEREST TO CONDUCT SMALL SCALE RESEARCH PROJECTS. EVIDENCE STRONGLY INDICATES THAT STUDENT RESEARCH PARTICIPATION INCREASES RETENTION AND BOLSTERS JOB AND GRADUATE SCHOOL OPPORTUNITIES. IN THE PAST 10 YEARS, UNDERGRADUATES WORKING WITH FACULTY MENTORS HAVE EXHIBITED ROUGHLY 2,000 RESEARCH AND ARTISTRY PROJECTS. IN FY2021 $3,056,198 WAS SUPPLIED TO SUPPORT CAMPUS DEPARTMENT AND PROGRAMS AND PROFESSORSHIPS. CAPITAL PROJECTS OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS, NIU DONORS HAVE LITERALLY CHANGED THE LANDSCAPE OF THE UNIVERSITY BY PROVIDING STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITIES THAT SIMPLY WOULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT PRIVATE SUPPORT. CAMPUS LANDMARKS SUCH AS BARSEMA HALL, THE BARSEMA ALUMNI AND VISITORS CENTER, THE YORDON CENTER, AND THE KENNETH AND ELLEN CHESSICK PRACTICE FACILITY WERE MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF DONORS. IN AUGUST OF 2021, THE UNIVERSITY CELEBRATED THE OPENING OF THE DE LA VEGA INNOVATION LAB IN THE COLLEGE OF BUSINESS. THIS 3,000-SQUARE-FOOT DONOR-FUNDED COLLABORATION HUB WILL FOSTER CREATIVITY, INNOVATION, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP THROUGHOUT THE NIU COMMUNITY AND BEYOND. IN FY21 520,870 WAS SPENT ON BUILDING PROJECTS AND EQUIPMENT TO ENHANCE THE LEARNING AND LIVING ENVIRONMENT. |
| PART III LINE 4A NARRATIVE CONTINUATION | INVESTING FOR THE FUTURE THE NIU FOUNDATION ENDOWMENT PROVIDES A STRATEGIC BASE OF FUNDING TO SUSTAIN EXCELLENCE AT NIU. AS OF JUNE 30, 2021, THE NIU FOUNDATION HELD NET ASSETS OF $157.4 MILLION, $99.3 MILLION OF WHICH WERE ENDOWMENT. THE NIU FOUNDATION ENDOWMENT FUND IS OVERSEEN BY MEMBERS OF THE NIU FOUNDATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS, ALL OF WHOM ARE GENEROUS DONORS THEMSELVES. THE BOARD'S INVESTMENT COMMITTEE CONDUCTS A THOROUGH PROCESS TO SELECT AND ENGAGE INDEPENDENT INVESTMENT CONSULTANT TO SET AND EXECUTE INVESTMENT POLICY AIMED TO ATTAIN THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE TOTAL RATE OF RETURN, COMMENSURATE WITH AN APPROPRIATE DEGREE OF RISK; PROVIDE GROWTH OF THE MARKET VALUE OF THE ENDOWMENT'S PRINCIPAL TO PROTECT AGAINST INFLATION; AND GENERATE CASH FLOW TO FUND SCHOLARSHIPS AND OTHER PRIORITIES. ANOTHER IMPORTANT INVESTMENT MADE BY THE NIU FOUNDATION IS IN THE CREATION OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO BE INVOLVED IN THE LIFE OF OUR WORK. THE NIU FOUNDATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS AN ACTIVE, VOTING MEMBER FROM THE STUDENT BODY WHOSE INPUT IS HIGHLY SOUGHT AND VALUED AND DOZENS OF STUDENTS GAIN VALUABLE EXPERIENCE AS EMPLOYEES OF OUR ANNUAL FUND CALL CENTER. IN ADDITION, THE FOUNDATION SPONSORS A STUDENT MANAGED PORTFOLIO PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR NATIONALLY RANKED COLLEGE OF BUSINESS THAT PROVIDES STUDENT ANALYSTS REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE IN INVESTMENT AND PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT. STUDENTS MEET WEEKLY TO MANAGE A PORTION OF THE NIU FOUNDATION PORTFOLIO. THEIR RESULTS ARE OUTSTANDING AS EVIDENCED IN THEIR YEAR-OVER-YEAR PERFORMANCE IN THE CFA INDUSTRY CHALLENGE, AN INTENSE SIX-MONTH COMPETITION THAT INVOLVES STUDENTS FROM THOUSANDS OF UNIVERSITIES AROUND THE WORLD AND A MULTITUDE OF INDUSTRY EXPERTS. THE FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT A UNIVERSITY WITH THE ENERGY AND MOMENTUM OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY REQUIRES AN EVER-INCREASING LEVEL OF SUPPORT. IN ANTICIPATION OF THESE NEEDS, THE NIU FOUNDATION IS CURRENTLY PLANNING FOR A COMPREHENSIVE CAMPAIGN TO ENSURE THAT POSITIVE ENERGY, AND LIFE-CHANGING MOMENTUM CONTINUE FOR GENERATIONS OF HARDWORKING, DEDICATED HUSKIES. |
