Submitted by the Niagara University Office of Alumni Engagement

In our spring 2013 "Phonathon," more than 40 students worked hard to call Niagara's alumni, families and friends. These student callers helped to raise about $100,000 over three weeks! These gifts help to support the Niagara Fund, scholarships and financial aid, faculty and curriculum development, technology advancement, and campus improvements.

The Office of Alumni Engagement would also like to thank some of our local businesses who donated gift certificates to motivate students during the spring "Phonathon": Wegmans, Wendy's, Niagara Landing Wine Cellars, Delta Sonic, Stuart Sports, Ashker's, Smith Brothers Pizza (the student callers love your pizza!), and a very special thank you to Brickhaus Inn for the wonderful accommodations for our "Phonathon" director. Their support has truly gone a long way and means so much to our students at Niagara University. Remember, "Phonathon" will be back in fall 2013!
