CASE Insights on Philanthropy in International and Independent Schools Survey Q&A-Recording

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The webinar introduces a new survey on philanthropy in international and independent schools, led by Debra Trumbull and Cricket Casper from CASE (Council for Advancement and Support of Education). They explain that this survey aims to provide data on philanthropic giving and aligns with CASE’s global reporting standards. This survey is considered a pilot year, open from January 24th to March 28th, targeting international and independent schools outside the U.S. It mirrors the U.S. survey, allowing global benchmarking.<br /><br />Key aspects of the survey include data collection on philanthropic giving through two lenses: funds received and new funds committed, operational structure, financials, and the advancement team structure. Participants will provide data based on their most recent financial year. The survey is web-based, supports multiple users per school, and features robust validation checks.<br /><br />The presentation emphasizes submitting the data to form a baseline for future years, providing insights and key observations. The survey’s ultimate goal is to enhance data-driven insights into philanthropic contributions for educational institutions. Participants are encouraged to provide feedback for improvements and are assured that benchmarking features will be developed soon.
