[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from Georgetown and tried to give the school a substantial gift. My experience with the individuals in the fund-raising group was a total disaster. They did not want to accommodate me in terms of my intentions for the gift. One member of the group was rude and insulted me. I subsequently met the director of the fund-raising department who was dismissive of one of my complaints. I wrote two letters of complaint to the president of the university and never received a response. So there you have it! I established two endowed perpetual funds at Johns Hopkins Medicine instead. Hopkins has a terrific fund-raising group which Georgetown could learn from and emulate. I had a wonderful education at Georgetown and loved my time there, but I would never give the school a dime based upon my horrific experience with the fund-raising personnel and the president.
