Giving Levels
Drive for Five
The Drive for Five began five years ago as an effort to double the number of $5,000+ donors from 125 to 250. In FY 2006, we are at 241 donors and up 93% since the programs inception. Between FY '03 and FY '05 the Sports Foundation experienced double-digit growth in this program. The goal of the Drive for Five program, which is especially pertinent during the Plan for Academic Enrichment, is to establish a vital and consistent group that annually provides leadership giving for Brown's athletic teams. The Drive for Five donor goal for FY '07 is 260. If you wish to participate, please contact Kelly Fitzsimmons at 401-863-7503 or click here to make a gift online.

Parents Athletic Leadership Council
The Parents Athletic Leadership Council was established in 2004 by a dedicated group of parents who seek to make a difference in their child’s overall educational experience at Brown – both in the classroom and on the field. Council members partner with the Sports Foundation to maximize philanthropic support that allows Brown student-athletes to compete at the highest level. Through their involvement, the Parents Athletic Leadership Council has the opportunity to engage in the life of the University and is committed to facilitating a sense of belonging to the Brown athletic family. If you are interested in being a parent leader, please contact Nicole Peters at 401-863-1893 or email Nicole Peters or click here to make a gift online.
