I am pleased to share with you this new communications initiative for Shoulder to Shoulder, La Salle's ongoing major gifts initiative. Beginning with this first issue, we will use this newlsetter to highlight fundraising activity, publicize and acknowledge key commitments, and share other achievements throughout the year.

For our volunteers, this newsletter will be a critical component of our efforts to communicate with you between meetings and provide the tools and resources you need to maximize your role as a leader of Shoulder to Shoulder.

For select La Salle alumni, parents and friends, this newsletter will include information and updates designed to encourage continued participation in the life of the University and help generate momentum for our fundraising efforts.

We look forward to your comments regarding the newsletter and its content, and look forward to maximizing this opportunity to keep you informed about La Salle and Shoulder to Shoulder.

Thank you for all that you continue to do for La Salle Univeristy.

Sincerely,
Brother Michael J. McGinniss, F.S.C.
President, La Salle University
