A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT<br />

Dear Alums and Wildcat Supporters,<br />

There’s a surge <strong>of</strong> new energy in Wildcat Country today! Thanks to our hard<br />

working leadership team, faculty, staff and students, <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong><br />

is poised for a successful and unforgettable academic year. Our campus is<br />

overflowing with close to 4,000 students and new academic programs.<br />

We began the <strong>2011</strong> school year in high gear and as the months progress, the<br />

rapid pace shows no sign <strong>of</strong> letting up. It’s an exciting time to be a Wildcat!<br />

Celebrate several milestones with us: FVSU was ranked #9 among the top<br />

regional public colleges in the south on the 2012 Best Colleges list published<br />

by U.S. News and World <strong>Report</strong>. What an accomplishment!<br />

I am pleased to announce that <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong>’s sponsored programs<br />

totaled $17 million in annual funding and $37 million in multi-year awards for<br />

federal, state and local contracts. Economic growth is the key to our success. A<br />

study initiated by the Georgia Board <strong>of</strong> Regents to illustrate the impact <strong>of</strong> state<br />

universities in local communities confirmed what we already knew. FVSU is<br />

the engine that drives economic growth in Peach County. FVSU provided 1,535<br />

jobs and contributed more than $85 million to the local economy in 2009,<br />

according to the study.<br />

Besides the hum created by enrollment growth, there’s a buzz <strong>of</strong> construction<br />

and renovation projects on campus. Huntington, Miller and Ohio halls will be<br />

completed and ready for occupancy in December. Construction costs for their<br />

renovation total more than $15 million. Academically-strong students deserve<br />

the best facilities.<br />

As a historian, I am extremely pleased about a new program in the Department<br />

<strong>of</strong> History, Geography, Political Science and Criminal Justice. A new master’s<br />

degree in history was approved by the Georgia Board <strong>of</strong> Regents and is now<br />

accepting registrants.<br />

I must also acknowledge the latest news from Wildcat Athletics. For the first<br />

time in the school’s history, four FVSU players were signed as free agents to<br />

the NFL. Another proud moment for all <strong>of</strong> us was when Women’s basketball<br />

coach, Lonnie Bartley, was named to the National Black College Alumni<br />

Hall <strong>of</strong> Fame. He is listed with 250 distinguished alumni from historically<br />

Black colleges and universities.<br />

Your support drives us to provide the best education, facilities and<br />

environment for students. We’ve made tremendous strides with enrollment<br />

growth, sponsored programs, new course <strong>of</strong>ferings and prestigious awards.<br />

Even so, we are challenged when it comes to providing financial assistance to<br />

deserving students. We urge you to invest in our new generation <strong>of</strong> leaders<br />

this year. Your contributions will be greatly appreciated.<br />

Sincerely yours,<br />

Larry E. Rivers<br />

FVSU President<br />

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN<br />

Dear Fellow Alumni and Friends <strong>of</strong><br />

the <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong>,<br />

As another glorious winter descends upon Peach County and our academic<br />

year is underway at FVSU, I am truly humbled while walking the campus<br />

because I see firsthand the great accomplishments that you, our donors,<br />

have helped to make possible at our beloved institution.<br />

As you peruse this year’s annual report, I know you will be pleased to see just<br />

how your gifts are put to use. The foundation’s primary objective to support<br />

FVSU’s academic mission is accomplished through ongoing programs, new<br />

funding initiatives, and <strong>of</strong> course, student scholarships.<br />

President Larry E. Rivers must receive applause. In his five-year tenure, the face<br />

<strong>of</strong> FVSU has changed. A new housing village, football stadium, a student<br />

amenities center and SMART classrooms were constructed in that time period<br />

and Huntington Hall, Miller and Stallworth buildings were preserved and<br />

restored. Rivers’ vision and leadership abilities coupled with a hardworking,<br />

dedicated staff combined to increase external funding revenue, double the<br />

university’s enrollment and produce a #25 ranking among the best historically<br />

black colleges and universities by U.S. Media Group in the 2010 edition <strong>of</strong><br />

“America’s Best Colleges.” With continued support and contributions, FVSU’s<br />

achievements will only increase.<br />

Again, on behalf <strong>of</strong> the FVSU Foundation Board <strong>of</strong> Directors, thank you. We<br />

will continue to work hard to assure that the trust you have placed in us, with<br />

your gifts, are justified. Our future depends on your support.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Calvin Smyre<br />

Chairman, FVSU Foundation, Inc.<br />

The Board <strong>of</strong> Directors <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />

<strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation, Inc.<br />

We have audited the accompanying<br />

consolidated statements <strong>of</strong> financial position<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation, Inc.<br />

and Subsidiaries (the Foundation) as <strong>of</strong> June<br />

30, <strong>2011</strong> and 2010 and the related consolidated<br />

statements <strong>of</strong> activities and cash flows for the<br />

years then ended. These consolidated financial<br />

statements are the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Foundation’s management. Our responsibility<br />

is to express an opinion on these consolidated<br />

financial statements based on our audits.<br />

We conducted our audits in accordance with<br />

auditing standards generally accepted in the<br />

United <strong>State</strong>s <strong>of</strong> America and the standards<br />

applicable to the financial audits contained in<br />

Government Auditing Standards, issued by<br />

the Comptroller General <strong>of</strong> the United <strong>State</strong>s.<br />

Those standards require that we plan and perform<br />

the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about<br />

whether the consolidated financial statements<br />

are free <strong>of</strong> material misstatement. An audit<br />

includes consideration <strong>of</strong> internal control over<br />

financial reporting as a basis for designing<br />

audit procedures that are appropriate in the<br />

circumstances, but not for the purpose <strong>of</strong><br />

expressing an opinion on the effectiveness <strong>of</strong><br />

the Foundation’s internal control over financial<br />

reporting. Accordingly, we express no such<br />

opinion. An audit also includes examining, on<br />

a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts<br />

and disclosures in the consolidated financial<br />

statements, assessing the accounting principles<br />

used and significant estimates made by<br />

management, as well as evaluating the overall<br />

financial statement presentation. We believe<br />

that our audits provide a reasonable basis<br />

for our opinion.<br />

In our opinion, the consolidated financial<br />

statements referred to above present fairly, in all<br />

material respects, the financial position <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fort</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation, Inc. and<br />

Subsidiaries as <strong>of</strong> June 30, <strong>2011</strong> and 2010 and<br />

the changes in net assets and cash flows for the<br />

years then ended in conformity with accounting<br />

principles generally accepted in the United<br />

<strong>State</strong>s <strong>of</strong> America.<br />

In accordance with Government Auditing<br />

Standards, we have also issued a report dated<br />

September 16, <strong>2011</strong> on our consideration<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation,<br />

Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting<br />

and our tests <strong>of</strong> its compliance with certain<br />

provisions <strong>of</strong> laws, regulations, contracts, grant<br />

agreements and other matters. The purpose<br />

<strong>of</strong> that report is to describe the scope <strong>of</strong> our<br />

testing <strong>of</strong> internal control over financial<br />

reporting and compliance and the results <strong>of</strong><br />

that testing, and not to provide an opinion on<br />

the internal control over financial reporting<br />

or on compliance. That report is an integral<br />

part <strong>of</strong> an audit performed in accordance with<br />

Government Auditing Standards and should be<br />

considered in assessing the results <strong>of</strong> our audit.<br />

WAYS TO GIVE to the fvsu foundation, inc.<br />

Making a financial gift to the <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation, Inc. ensures that the institution can fulfill its mission. Your gifts provide<br />

opportunities for students to pursue their career goals, then after matriculation contribute to the global community. A contribution to the<br />

foundation also provides a special benefit to donors: tax benefits such as deductions for charitable contributions on income tax returns and<br />

capital gains tax savings when tax time approaches. Future estate tax savings may also result from the gift.<br />

Donors determine how gifts are administered. When a contribution is not accompanied with specific instructions, it is classified as an<br />

unrestricted gift and used in the areas <strong>of</strong> greatest need at <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> as determined by the board <strong>of</strong> directors, the <strong>of</strong>ficers<br />

<strong>of</strong> the foundation and the university president. To establish special funds, such as a scholarship in the name <strong>of</strong> a loved one, the foundation<br />

recommends that a meeting is scheduled between the donor and a foundation representative to determine how the fund will be administered<br />

and disbursed. Signed documentation that outlines the donor’s wishes is strictly adhered to by the foundation.<br />

Give Cash<br />

The easiest way to give to FVSU is through<br />

a cash contribution. Make a donation<br />

designated for the university’s area <strong>of</strong> greatest<br />

current need. Contribute a large gift for a<br />

specific purpose, for scholarships, to enhance<br />

facilities, or support a special activity. Ask us<br />

for more information about the ways to give.<br />

a one-time $5 donation is charged to your<br />

must be authorized by the account holder.<br />

Messaging and data rates may apply. For more<br />

All major credit cards are accepted by the <strong>Fort</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> Foundation, Inc.<br />

Make a donation online at:<br />

http://past.fvsu.edu/alumni-donors/give-online<br />

Matching Gifts<br />

You or your spouse may work at a company<br />

that matches its employees’ donations to<br />

higher education institutions. This program<br />

<strong>of</strong>fers a great opportunity to double or even<br />

triple your gift to the university. Each year,<br />

FVSU benefits from corporate contributions<br />

initiated by company employees or retirees.<br />

Memorial Gifts<br />

Remember a loved one, living or deceased,<br />

by donating a gift in their name. Often,<br />

scholarships are established “in memory <strong>of</strong>”<br />

an individual to honor them.<br />

Stocks, Bonds and Other Assets<br />

Stocks, or other investments, owned for at<br />

least one year that have increased in value<br />

become a substantial gift and can be<br />

donated at a low net cost to you. Appreciated<br />

assets can be ideal funding sources for<br />

charitable gifts that provide you (or someone<br />

you want to support) regular income for life.<br />

Take a Capital Loss Yourself<br />

If you own securities worth less now than<br />

when originally purchased, sell them and<br />

contribute the proceeds to the FVSU<br />

Foundation, Inc. Deduct the capital loss on<br />

your tax return. A tax break is not available<br />

to the foundation if the securities are<br />

donated directly to us.<br />

Life Insurance<br />

A contribution to the <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong><br />

<strong>University</strong> Foundation from a life insurance<br />

policy can be made either by delivering an<br />

assigned ownership <strong>of</strong> the policy to the<br />

foundation, or by naming the foundation<br />

as the irrevocable owner and beneficiary <strong>of</strong><br />

the policy. The policy provides a definite,<br />

large, future gift at a small annual expense,<br />

and premiums are tax deductible. Another<br />

way to give is to change the beneficiary <strong>of</strong> an<br />

existing policy, if the present beneficiary no<br />

longer needs protection. The foundation<br />

can be named as the new beneficiary or<br />

co-beneficiary.<br />

Personal Property<br />

In most cases, a gift <strong>of</strong> tangible personal<br />

property, such as a painting, antiques, books,<br />

artifacts or jewelry is considered a charitable<br />

deduction. The potential capital tax on the<br />

property’s appreciation can be avoided.<br />

Appreciated Property<br />

It is <strong>of</strong>ten advantageous to contribute<br />

appreciated property rather than cash.<br />

Securities, homes, land and other assets make<br />

ideal gifts. By donating gifts <strong>of</strong> appreciated<br />

property, you eliminate capital gains tax and<br />

receive a charitable deduction based on the<br />

full market value <strong>of</strong> the gift.<br />

Outright Bequest<br />

Name the FVSU Foundation, Inc. as a<br />

beneficiary in your will and make a gift <strong>of</strong> cash,<br />

investments or property from your estate.<br />

Residual Bequest<br />

A residual bequest provides that after specific<br />

bequests are made to named individuals, <strong>Fort</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> receives the “residue”<br />

or the amount remaining in the estate.<br />

Codicil<br />

If you already have a valid, up-to-date will, you<br />

can have an attorney prepare a codicil to the will<br />

naming the university as a beneficiary without<br />

rewriting the entire document.<br />

WHAT ARE MATCHING<br />

GIFT COMPANIES<br />

Thousands <strong>of</strong> companies and corporate<br />

foundations in the United <strong>State</strong>s currently<br />

match their employees’ gifts to nonpr<strong>of</strong>it<br />

organizations such as universities.<br />

Under a corporate matching gift program,<br />

donations made by a company’s eligible<br />

employee or spouse are matched with<br />

corporate foundation funds.<br />

STEP 1<br />

To initiate a matching gift, a donor fills<br />

out the company’s matching gift form<br />

(available through the benefits <strong>of</strong>fice)<br />

and sends it, along with his or her donation,<br />

to the FVSU Foundation, Inc.<br />

STEP 2<br />

The university’s foundation completes<br />

the form and returns it to the company.<br />

STEP 3<br />

The company then sends a check<br />

to FVSU Foundation, Inc.

More than 250 Wildcats bid farewell to college life during the 70th<br />

annual Spring Commencement on May 1, <strong>2011</strong>. The stands <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Health and Physical Education Complex were packed with parents,<br />

family members and supporters <strong>of</strong> graduates, waving “Congratulations”<br />

banners and cheering.<br />

Students listened to the advice <strong>of</strong> keynote speaker Gary Black, Georgia<br />

Commissioner <strong>of</strong> Agriculture, before FVSU President Larry E. Rivers<br />

conferred degrees.<br />

The president also recognized several special groups for their generous<br />

financial contributions to the institution. FVSU’s Class <strong>of</strong> 1961 donated<br />

$25,000 to start a scholarship endowment—the largest donation given<br />

by a 50th Anniversary Class. “We did a mass mailing to all members<br />

that graduated in the 1961 class,” said Oscar Jessie, co-chair <strong>of</strong> the 1961<br />

FVSC Class Reunion.<br />

The Kitchens family, represented by Janice and Phyllis Kitchens, also<br />

Transformation <strong>of</strong><br />

the Blue Machine<br />

Marching Band<br />

President Larry E. Rivers asked a committee to<br />

assist with the mission <strong>of</strong> retooling and rebuilding<br />

the university’s Blue Machine Marching Band. The<br />

FVSU student body answered the call with a plan<br />

<strong>of</strong> action and a contribution. The Pre-Alumni<br />

Association donated $1,600 and the FVSU<br />

Student Government Association contributed<br />

another $60,000 from their budget.<br />

Wildcat alumnus Leon Moss pushed for an adopta-band<br />

member project. Last year, the National<br />

Alumni Association, Inc. approved the idea and<br />

formed a committee. During the spring 2010<br />

commencement, the NAA donated $5,000 towards<br />

the effort.<br />

“Our chapter donated five mellophone horns,<br />

and I donated 14 instruments, 12 trumpets and<br />

six saxophones valued at $7,000. I saw the need<br />

and encouraged the chapter to get involved,” says<br />

Oscar Jessie, Greater Miami Alumni chapter vice<br />

president and an FVSU 1961 graduate.<br />

EXTERNAL FUNDING<br />

Fueling the Future<br />

Thanks to Dr. Bharat Singh, <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> recently<br />

received nearly $1 million from the USDA’s National Institute <strong>of</strong> Food<br />

and Agriculture agency to research energy crops for the next five years.<br />

“This is the first time an FVSU researcher has secured a large AFRI<br />

grant,” said Dr. Govind Kannan, dean <strong>of</strong> the College <strong>of</strong> Agriculture,<br />

Family Sciences and Technology. “There is usually intense competition<br />

among the major land-grant institutions for AFRI grants, and this<br />

award to FVSU demonstrates the caliber <strong>of</strong> our research programs.”<br />

SAFE Center Grant<br />

The Macon Kennel Club, an American Kennel Club affiliate, presented<br />

a check for $4,937.90 to Dr. Oreta Samples, veterinary technologist<br />

and Dr. Seyedmehdi Mobini, pr<strong>of</strong>essor and interim head <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Department <strong>of</strong> Veterinary Science for the SAFE Center at its June<br />

6 meeting on behalf <strong>of</strong> the AKC Companion Animal Relief Canine<br />

Support and Relief Fund. The funds will be used to purchase feeding<br />

bowls, leashes, litter boxes, harnesses, cat bags, a digital printer and<br />

camera to identify animals, muzzles and pooper scoopers.<br />

FVSU Top 5<br />

Thanks to the hard work <strong>of</strong> university faculty researchers<br />

and the Office <strong>of</strong> Sponsored Programs, the Board <strong>of</strong> Regent’s<br />

SUCCESS WILDCAT STYLE<br />

Enormous Growth in 5 Years<br />

FVSU’s chief executive <strong>of</strong>ficer, Dr. Larry Rivers, is a man with<br />

boundless energy who understood the challenges <strong>of</strong> the job when he<br />

became the university’s eighth president five years ago. A budget deficit,<br />

sagging student enrollment and an insufficient endowment are a few<br />

<strong>of</strong> the issues he faced.<br />

In five short years, many changes have occurred. Before Dr. Rivers’ arrival,<br />

construction projects only totaled $30 million between 1976 and 2006. Now,<br />

they have increased to $160 million. New construction projects include<br />

FVSU’s housing facilities—the Wildcat Commons, the $16.8 million science<br />

research building, the $9 million Wildcat Stadium and a modern $6<br />

million student center. Additionally, older buildings such as the Stallworth<br />

Agricultural Research Building, Ohio, Miller and Huntington halls are<br />

now under renovation.<br />

The university has also expanded academic programs to include several<br />

master’s degrees. The degrees are in the following areas: biotechnology<br />

and school counselor education. New undergraduate courses are<br />

in family and consumer science, middle grades and early childhood/<br />

special education.<br />

FVSU also earned the #25 spot among the best historically black colleges<br />

and universities listed in the 2010 edition <strong>of</strong> “America’s Best Colleges” by<br />

U.S. News Media Group.<br />

[WHY I GIVE]<br />

donors share their reasons for giving back<br />

“<br />

I came from a very small town, Social Circle, Ga. There were no job options. You could pick cotton or become a<br />

maid. I entered <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> College in the eleventh grade, which was 1953 and finished in 1958. I came from a<br />

very poor school district and my mother preferred that I attend <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> College. <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> gave me<br />

a foundation and a chance, and I thank God for it. Every time I received a paycheck, <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong><br />

got something; and until I die, <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> will get something.<br />

”<br />

— Betty Holston, Class <strong>of</strong> 1958<br />

“<br />

We should set examples by helping others so that the recipients will understand<br />

”<br />

the importance <strong>of</strong> the university’s continuum.<br />

‘To whom much is given, much is expected.’ <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> extended to me an educational<br />

opportunity in the 1960s when others would not; therefore, I must give, not only financially, but through good<br />

will, by identifying opportunities for the institution and the steadfast promotion <strong>of</strong> the university’s mission<br />

throughout the state and across our nation as well.<br />

I would like to see assistance available for students who are in need. I give in order to help [the] graduate studies<br />

Championship Teams<br />

Football Last season, the Wildcats finished with an 8-3 mark,<br />

closed the season with a Pioneer Bowl appearance, ranked sixth in the<br />

NCAA South Region and won national honors as the NCAA Division<br />

II top defensive team in the nation. Additionally, four FVSU athletes<br />

were signed as free agents in the NFL.<br />

Women’s Basketball The Lady Wildcats won the<br />

2010-11 SIAC Championship title. Under the leadership <strong>of</strong> charismatic<br />

and winning coach (the most wins in the history <strong>of</strong> Division II women’s<br />

basketball) Lonnie Bartley, FVSU has won 10 SIAC Championships<br />

with 11 appearances in championship games. The 2010-11 team also<br />

advanced to the NCAA South Region Tournament.<br />

Women’s Tennis In <strong>2011</strong>, the Lady Wildcats Tennis Team<br />

grabbed the SIAC Eastern Division title and finished second in the<br />

conference tournament. The success on the court was met with<br />

increased fan support during tennis matches and lays the groundwork<br />

for a solid, competitive program in the years to come.<br />

S<strong>of</strong>tball After a second place finish in 2010, the Lady Wildcats<br />

claimed this year’s SIAC S<strong>of</strong>tball Title for the second time in school<br />

history. With the <strong>2011</strong> championship comes an automatic invitation<br />

to participate in the NCAA South Regional Championship. The<br />

NCAA Tournament appearance is the first for FVSU in s<strong>of</strong>tball.<br />

Track & Field This season, 13 student athletes qualified<br />

for the NCAA Track & Field Nationals for the second year in a row.<br />

The team includes two-time NCAA Division II Defending Triple Jump<br />

champion Antoinette Oglesby. The Lady Wildcats Track & Field Team<br />

finished fifth in the nation last year.<br />

Project 250/50<br />

10 th Anniversary <strong>of</strong> the<br />

John W. Davison Lecture Series<br />

Ten years ago, <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> established a lecture series to honor John<br />

Wesley Davison, the first principal <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> High and Industrial School.<br />

The objective <strong>of</strong> the project was to emphasize to students and community residents<br />

that education extends well beyond the classroom. Over the years, the series featured<br />

notable speakers such as Ludacris, Tasha Smith, Terri Vaughn, Dr. Lewis Baldwin,<br />

Spike Lee, Richard Roundtree, Dr. Cornel West, Tim and Daphne Reid, Mae Jemison,<br />

Fredricka Whitfield, Dr. Ian Smith and Nikki Giovanni. The JWDLS provides an<br />

opportunity for students to meet and question guest speakers who are successful in<br />

their career fields. Students are shown how their experiences as undergraduates can<br />

lead to an abundance <strong>of</strong> opportunities outside the ivory towers <strong>of</strong> FVSU.<br />

SPOTLIGHT<br />

TOMMY IRVIN<br />

Retired Georgia Agriculture Commissioner<br />

Tommy Irvin is a long-time friend and<br />

supporter <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong>.<br />

The longest-serving Georgia <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />

and the longest-serving agriculture<br />

commissioner in the United <strong>State</strong>s<br />

marked his retirement from <strong>of</strong>fice with a<br />

major gift to the university’s scholarship<br />

fund from a campaign account.<br />

“I have felt a special connection to <strong>Fort</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>State</strong> since I first ran for agriculture<br />

commissioner back in 1970,” Irvin<br />

explained. “I wanted to do good with<br />

the remaining funds in my campaign<br />

account, so I transferred $50,000 in<br />

stock to aid students. The law allows me<br />

to do this, and I am glad that I could.”<br />
