Introductory blurb from a UCF Foundation annual report:
With almost $63 million in total commitments to UCF, Fiscal Year 2017 was the best since the inception of IGNITE: The Campaign for UCF in mid-2011. That $63 million came in the form of 33,167 different gifts and pledges from 15,236 different donors — individual alumni and friends of UCF, corporations large and small, and other foundations and nonprofit organizations of all shapes and sizes. The stories behind their gifts are as varied and inspiring as the donors themselves. Choosing the few of them that we tell each year in these pages is simultaneously a treat and a trial.
The number we can’t report is how many people were — and will be — positively impacted by the generosity of those 15,236 donors. In fact, many of those impacted may never even realize it. That doesn’t matter to those of us who give. We give not for gratitude, not for recognition. Giving, after all, is its own reward.
Introductory blurb from a case for support for the UNLV medical school":
Southern Nevada’s history is a series of improbabilities — improbable artesian wells watering green meadows surrounded by desert, an improbable undertaking in a remote canyon that yielded arguably the greatest public work ever completed, an improbable city rising seemingly overnight from an arid plain that would ultimately become a home to more than 2 million people and a destination for the world.
So the creation from scratch of a new medical school here in 2014 thanks to the vision and grit of a small group of rebels and risk-takers, generous donors, doctors willing to put it all on the line, and one of the nation’s most dynamic, diverse universities shouldn’t have come as any surprise.
Neither should the audacity of its goal — to address a dangerous and worsening shortage of doctors for Southern Nevada’s 2.3 million people by transforming a region that ranks among the worst in the country for healthcare into a hub for patient care, medical education and vital research.
Improbable? Maybe. But the people of Southern Nevada know a little something about turning the improbable into the inevitable.
