The University of Colorado Foundation has promoted Matthew Wasserman to lead fundraising efforts for the University of Colorado Denver\u2019s Downtown campus, effective January 4. As a senior director of development for the Foundation, Wasserman will lead a fundraising effort that raised $4.8 million in 2008-09 for the campus\u2019s eight schools and colleges serving a student population of 11,000.<\/p>\n
Wasserman (who received a Masters in Business Administration in 2004 from UC Denver) has for the last two years led the fundraising effort for the UC Denver Business School, with $3 million in gifts raised for the School, nearly triple its average annual amount. He has played an integral role in the campaign to create a new home for the School at 1475 Lawrence Court. He has initiated a campaign fundraising model\u2014which mobilizes effective volunteer networks\u2014now being implemented for other schools on the downtown campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks to Matt\u2019s diligence and ingenuity, our campaign is ideally positioned for continued growth and success, as we prepare the School to take a substantial step forward,\u201d says Sueann Ambron, dean of the Business School. \u201cWe look forward to continuing to work with him in his new, broader role.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before arriving at the CU Foundation in December 2007, Wasserman worked in numerous fundraising and management capacities in nonprofit and political arenas, including as co-owner and president for the Denver Development Group (raising money for clients such as the Children\u2019s Museum of Denver), the Denver Art Museum, and Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper\u2019s re-election campaign as a client.<\/p>\n
Founded in 1967, the nonprofit CU Foundation partners with the University of Colorado to raise, manage, and invest private support for the university\u2019s benefit. Visit www.cufund.org for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
