Abstract	Gallaudet University, originally chartered by the US Congress as the Columbia Institute for the Deaf and Dumb and Blind in 1864, recently began to solicit donations from their alumni through formal fund-raising campaigns. Using a combination of historical and qualitative analysis coupled with descriptive statistics from institutional data and the Voluntary Support of Education Survey, Gallaudet's advancement story becomes apparent. Working within the Deaf culture and its nontraditional view of philanthropy, Gallaudet's fund-raising experiences and results are similar to those of historically black colleges and universities.
