Kia ora koutou,<\/p>\n
I hope this message finds you all safe and well and adjusting to life under Covid-19 Alert Level 3.<\/p>\n
As a nation, we have all pulled together and contributed to reducing the spread of the virus through our successful lockdown and now we face a new set of challenges – facing the reality of the economic impact of the pandemic.<\/p>\n
Many of you are in contact with students, parents, families and alumni who are coming to terms with loss, both personal and financial, and many of you are working hard on behalf of your institutions to support them.\u00a0 We know that those of us working in advancement face a tough time ahead within our schools and tertiary institutions to continue to attract, recruit, and to fundraise in such challenging times. But there is a lot of experience and knowledge in our profession and now is the time to draw down on it.<\/p>\n
As our \u2018bubbles\u2019 slowly enlarge and we emerge after lockdown, please don\u2019t forget to turn to other Educate Plus members for ideas, suggestions and tips for survival! We look forward to sharing with you more links to professional development and gathering with you at \u2018virtual coffee catch ups\u2019.<\/p>\n
We are all in this together and we all share in valuing education and advancing our institutions and our students.<\/p>\n
