Marlene Shaver

Associate Vice Chancellor, Advancement Services UC San Diego, and Chief Financial and Operating Officer, UC San Diego Foundation

Marlene has been in her position with UC San Diego for 32 years after serving in public accounting for six. She has been involved in two significant campaigns for UC San Diego—in the first raising over $1 billion completed in 2007, and in the second, just completed, raising over $3 billion. Her team oversees the full charitable gift revenue cycle from proposal review, to gift agreement preparation, gift analysis, processing and receipting, gift accounting, investment and endowment management, planned gift management, donor acknowledgement, and ongoing gift and fund stewardship. Her team has analyzed many significant gifts-in-kind for acceptance and understands the unique opportunities and challenges they can provide to our institutions.
