Telephone fundraising consultants Rux-Burton Associates are asking for tips on fundraising
from alumni outside the UK for their next newsletter.
Next month Rux-Burton Associates(
RBA) are writing an article entitled ‘The rough guide to international fundraising’
for their newsletter. It will have a large range

of tips, opportunities and pitfalls to avoid across the world when fundraising from
alumni outside of the UK.

The agency is asking educational or other fundraisers to get involved by contributing
some tips of their own, whether this means a couple of lines or a couple of paragraphs.
These could be anything from something as simple as “the best time of year for personal
visits in the Far East is in October” to something more detailed such as how to 
make gifts from North America tax efficient for the donor.

Although the focus will most likely be on fundraising from alumni who are living
in

North America, Europe, the Far East and Australia, RBA will welcome ideas/tips for
alumni based anywhere in the world.

All tips used will be referenced. The newsletter is sent to over 1000 UK educational
institutions.

Tips are requested by 5 September 2003. Contact Simon Lerwill, Marketing Manager
at Rux-Burton Associates Limited.
