6. I treat my donations seriously.

Many donors are passive donors and do not have time to care about what happened to their donations. I am otherwise.  Although I have many donations to NTU, I do keep track of them, usually by emails, but not always.  Sometimes keep track of them involves visits to NTU, to talk to the people involved, or to attend the events.

By early 2013, due to my vision defect, I had to give up driving.   Marina, the DO director, gave me special treatment and book me one of the NTU cars with driver, to take me from home to NTU and back.  By mid 2013, my walking has worsened.  Whenever I go out, I had to be pushed on wheelchair.  Marina kindly gave me extra attention to have either herself or one of her staff to accompany me to push my wheelchair.

About some new donations, I am not happy when there has been no news of progress from the donation receipients.   I may take the drastic step of reducing their funding amount and adding to the funding of those I am happy with.
