Pictured below (left to right): Eric Lloyd, Elizabeth Lloyd, Jimmy Wright, and Rusty Connor at the Foundation’s inaugural Benefactors Event.

Over the course of nearly 40 years, philanthropy and selfless service have helped the Foundation make a lasting and significant impact on the life of Mr. Jefferson’s University.

TO HONOR AND CELEBRATE that milestone, the Foundation hosted the first-ever Benefactors Event on May 6, 2017. Individuals and families who have contributed a named Jefferson Scholarship, Fellowship, or Professorship came together for a full day of activities to celebrate both the Foundation’s history and its future success. Several of the Foundation’s founders, including Bill Blue (Com ’56, Law ’60), Landon Hilliard (Col ’62), Buford Scott (Col ’55), and Eli Tullis (Col ’51) (pictured above), led a discussion on how the idea for the Jefferson Scholars Program took root at the University in the late-‘70s. Over dinner, Jimmy Wright, president of the Foundation, shared the Board of Directors’ vision for the coming years and how the Foundation plans to continue to have a lasting and positive impact on the University.

12 “The Jefferson Scholars Foundation attracts highly DEVELOPMENT competent students to the University who may otherwise have attended other schools. U.Va. deserves the best talent.”

CONCLUSION

While enjoying the benefit of the recent financial gains, the Foundation understands that each year begins anew and there are no guarantees of investment success going forward. The Foundation continues to play the long game and remains focused on careful investment and spending, with the goal of providing program resources both near-term and far into the future.

The Foundation is grateful to the Board of Directors and the members of the other advisory groups for their gifts of time, guidance, and financial resources. As always, the Foundation is appreciative of the many benefactors who have supported it for almost four decades and will strive to remain a good steward of the trust they have placed in its philanthropic mission.

Every major decision is filtered“ through the prism of the mission.”
