Dear Colleague:
As the holidays
approach, we are reminded of the things we have to be thankful for. As a
marketing and business development professional in the A/E/C industry,
up-to-date research and resources are two of the items that help me succeed
each day. I am thankful the SMPS Foundation provides those resources for all
members!
The SMPS Foundation provides us with evolving
industry practices, assists us in elevating the professionalism of our work,
contributes to the advancement of our careers, and builds business for our
firms.
With plans now underway
for a Thought Leadership Series book on business development in our industry
and the annual student scholarship award, we need your support. Can you give a
gift today to support additional A/E/C industry research by the SMPS
Foundation?
The newly redesigned SMPS Foundation Donor Program ensures the
financial strength of the Foundation and bonds the SMPS Foundation with those
who so strongly believe in its mission. Become a Foundation donor today. Each
donor level offers unique and important benefits you can enjoy as a Foundation
donor.
To help the Foundation
continue as an essential resource for research, education, and advocacy for the
A/E/C industry, we ask that you consider becoming a Friend of the Foundation. If your circumstances don’t allow you to give
at the Friend level, we ask that you consider another level of support. There
are two ways to donate:
1. Download the donor form and return it
with your check
2. Donate online
The Foundation relies
entirely on contributions from SMPS members, our firms, and SMPS chapters to fund its important research and publications
each year. All donations to the Foundation are fully tax deductible as
charitable contributions. And it’s not too late—you still have time to make a
donation for this current tax year!
If you have any questions about the SMPS Foundation or the donor program,
please contact me.
Your gift today will
help fund additional industry research that will advance our profession. Thank
you.
Sincerely,

Donna Jakubowicz, FSMPS, CPSM
SMPS Foundation President, and
Corporate Marketing Director, Barton Malow Company
P.S. Sending your gift now gives you an additional end-of-the-year tax deduction and supports the only organization with a mission of promoting research and education while emphasizing the role and value of marketing in the A/E/C industry.
An investment in the SMPS Foundation is an investment in your future.
