"Our vision, our theme, our brand encompass means and goals, but much more, they express our character and our ways of being and becoming. To pursue excellence requires much change, transformative change. And such change is already underway. This pursuit is not for the timid or faint of heart."

- Dr. Horace A. Judson, GSU President

Tom Joiner Foundation Chapter Challenge

 

Purpose

To involve the National Alumni Association and the alumni of the 2008
School of the Month (SOTM) partners in the Tom Joyner Foundation SOTM
initiative.

Criteria for Chapter Challenge

  • All active alumni chapters associated with the SOTM partner schools are encouraged to raise a minimum of $5,000 per chapter. All donations raised, no matter the amount, will benefit the SOTM overall goal.
  • The donations raised through this initiative can be solicited from alumni, friends, community affiliations and churches in the community of the alumni chapter.
    • A conference call between The Tom Joyner Foundation and the National Alumni Association president can be held to promote the SOTM partnership and encourage involvement from the National Alumni Association.
  • All donations should be made payable to “The Tom Joyner Foundation.” All donations received through the Chapter Challenge initiative will be forwarded to the school for scholarship support.
    • All donations submitted to the schools for this effort should be forward to the Foundation for reconciliation. A donor report should also be submitted with the funds from the partner school.

Recognition

All alumni chapters that raise a minimum of $5,000 per chapter will be
included in the alumni association donor roll call announced by Tom during
the Tom Joyner Morning Show during the last week of the SOTM awareness
month. Additionally, any additional chapter challenge funds that come into
the Tom Joyner Foundation office following the assigned SOTM awareness
month will be announced during the general Chapter Challenge Roll Call in
December.
