The cover of the Spring 2025 issue of Breakthroughs magazine
The Office of College Relations at Rausser College of Natural Resources has received an honorable mention in the Annual Giving Network’s (AGN) 2025 Best in Annual Giving Awards.
AGN helps colleges, universities, and independent schools in the United States and abroad develop sustainable sources of philanthropic support through research, training, and consulting services. The awards honor successful and innovative work by annual giving programs at educational institutions.
College Relations staff members Sunil Prasad and Sarah Wininger were recognized for their efforts to update the communications preferences for the more than 60,000 alums, donors, parents, and friends of the College. They administered a short email survey last fall that allowed magazine recipients to specify whether they wanted to receive a print or digital copy of Breakthroughs and to update their mailing address. The survey also asked respondents if they preferred hearing from the college via SMS texting. The main aim of this survey was to help the College strengthen its digital engagement strategy to better deliver updates to audiences via their preferred media.
