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 />

must be authorized by the account holder.<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 />

YOUR DONATIONS AT WORK<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
FVSU Gives Back<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 />
