Attorney at Law, Carlton Fields, Class of 1998
Member of Council of 100
“I take great pride in knowing where I’ve come from and where I’ve been. If it wasn’t for FIU, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now it’s my turn to help someone else achieve their dreams by making a gift to the Annual Fund.” |

Dr. Stephen Fain
Professor, College of Education
“I have always believed that as a member of the faculty I had obligations beyond my classroom and my research. One is to support the University by participating in fundraising activities.” |

Christine Denton
2006 Alumni
“I feel very grateful for the scholarship that I received. Someone cared enough to make a gift to help students like me. I also know that you don’t necessarily have to be alumni or faculty to become a donor to FIU. Students, parents or anyone can make a gift.”

- Because Florida International University students deserve the best available education.
- Because we all benefit from well educated citizens.
- Because the total cost of providing a student with a FIU education is considerably greater than the amount the student actually pays—and it should stay that way.
- Because tuition increases should not be the only way for the university to meet rising costs.
- Because your gift will combine with thousands of others to make a real difference.
- Because Florida International University has a remarkable number of departments and programs ranked nationally, and your gift can help keep them there.
- Because your gift can help make a great university even better.
- Because your participation helps FIU tell state legislators, and potential corporate donors, that the people of Southern Florida believe quality higher education should be a priority.
- Because there is a tradition that each succeeding generation turns around and helps the one behind it. You benefited from that tradition, perhaps without even knowing it; now it is your turn.
