A Thank You Message From Leadership

Dear FIU Family,

Each year, we are equally humbled and amazed by the generosity and commitment of our university's donors. It is because of their dedication to FIU that we continue on our path toward future endeavors that will bring forth unique opportunities for our students.

The exemplary willingness to support FIU, which is demonstrated by so many of our donors, embodies the confidence they have placed in our institution to uphold our mission and values.

This year's Annual Report focuses on the important role that our donors play in launching FIU forward, as they lay the groundwork for present and future successes. Over the next few pages, you will read about impact and about what has been possible for FIU because of their allegiance to the development and growth of our institution.

We are thankful for the support of our donors and the contributions they make to our university that assist in Propelling Us Forward, and we are looking forward to what is yet to come.

Sincerely,

Richard Brilliant ’93
