Historically, state governments have taken the lead in financing higher education. Yet over the past 20 years, the share of university expenditures subsidized by state appropriations has gradually declined. In addition, the recession that began in late 2007 has taken a brutal toll on state revenues. These revenue shortfalls have translated into budget cuts for most state services, including higher education funding. Colleges and universities rely on three major funding streams: state appropriations, endowments and private gifts, and tuition and fees. Private gifts help ASU keep the financial burden that is absorbed by the student body to a minimum while ensuring they receive a high quality education, setting the stage for further successes in life.
Help us give students a brighter future by leaving ASU in your will or setting up an endowment now.

We will encourage people to support #GivingTuesday and our Annual Scholarship Fund via our Facebook and Twitter sites, public service announcements on our campus radio station and online newsletter.
Gifts directly impact our students as approximately 80% of Brenau’s 2,800 students require financial aid in order to complete their education.
For 134 years, Brenau University has challenged students to live extraordinary lives of personal and professional fulfillment. Today, Brenau offers coeducational undergraduate and graduate programs on five campuses located across Georgia in Gainesville, Norcross, Fairburn, Augusta, and Kings Bay. We are also home to one of the few historic residential women’s colleges in the nation.
Our students are a diverse group. They are both traditional and non-traditional students from across Georgia, from around the world and from highly mobile military families.
· Adrienne is an education major with a full-time job, a husband and children. She dreams of becoming a teacher to help children in her community. To accomplish her goals, she takes classes at night and on the weekend, finding that Brenau’s flexible schedules fit her life perfectly.
· Elizabeth is from a military family that moves often. A Psychology major, she has found a second home at Brenau’s Women’s College. Involved in many activities on campus, including the Student Ambassadors, she is a shining example of a poised Brenau student ready to take her place in the world.
Your gift to our Annual Scholarship Fund will help these students and others to achieve their dreams of extraordinary lives.

As a non-profit we'll have increased public hours that day, special incentives for giving, and utilize Giving Tuesday messages in our broadcasts, webstreams, social media, etc. As a media outlet we will partner with a fellow local non-profit for a live remote event on an initiative that benefits both groups. An example would be sending our afternoon drive show to broadcast live from Tucson's historic downtown theatres where those organizations are selling season ticket plans.

Our mission is to partner with American Indian nations to develop and implement sustainable, "Green build" solutions to the housing needs within their communities. So we are declaring our re-commitment to American Indians and their housing needs by posting, in and around Thanksgiving,(and in particular because it is American Indian Heritage Month)- positive "did you know" historical facts about American Indians on our Facebook and Twitter pages. Afterall, American Indians were the first Green Builders.
We will also do our part in promoting #GivingTuesday on Red Feather Development Group's Facebook and Twitter feeds. -

The Constitutional Sources Project (ConSource)
Nonprofit
Giving Tuesday Campaign to raise money for our educational program, Using Technology to Help Students Think Historically.
The purpose of this new educational program is to demonstrate that elementary and secondary school students are capable of thinking historically and to provide teachers and students with a free resource that enables them to practice the skill set necessary to do so.
Good historical thinkers are careful, critical readers who are hungry for evidentiary source data. Good historical thinkers are also tolerant of differing perspectives, because they appreciate that they can only understand the past by exploring the different opinions that emerged during crucial historical periods. At the same time, historical thinkers are skilled at detecting veiled partisanship and weak claims. They also know how to construct and defend evidence-based arguments because they must use the evidence revealed by historical documents to recreate and interpret moments of our past.
In short, good historical thinkers are informed, educated, and thoughtful. In a day and age when we use the internet as a shortcut for informed research and when we expect to receive information in 140 characters or less, teachers should encourage students to instead use the internet to develop the necessary skills for active citizenship.
ConSource staff members work directly with educators to help them integrate primary source documents into existing lesson plans and/or develop lesson plans with a heavy emphasis on primary source materials. -
