USD  REFLECTION

THE SPIRIT OF PHILANTHROPY was celebrated on Nov. 5, 2011 during the Founders’ Gala, USD’s signature fundraising event. This year, more than $425,000 was raised for the Founders’ Endowed Scholarship Fund, which provides much-needed financial support to students. The inaugural Founders’ Gala took place in 2009; nearly $1million has been raised since its inception. Honorary gala chair Darlene V. Shiley is pictured at right with USDPresident Mary E. Lyons, PhD. Planning is already underway for the next Founders’ Gala, which is scheduled for November 2013. To learn more, go to www.sandiego.edu/foundersgala/.
