Integrity Management Donates $500,000 to Northwestern’s Capital Campaign

Integrity Management, a practice management firm, has donated $500,000 to Northwestern Health Sciences University. The donation will be used toward the construction of the Integrity Management Student, Alumni and Career Services Center. The donation will also be used to construct the Integrity Management Smart Center, a state-of-the-art video conferencing center. The centers are part of Northwestern’s ongoing $8 million construction project, which includes a $6.5 million Wolfe-Harris Center for Excellence and $1.5 million in renovations to the current facility. The Wolfe-Harris Center for Excellence will house the University’s research department; the Greenawalt Library; Integrity Management Student, Alumni and Career Services Center; and administrative offices. Major construction on the new building is expected to begin in the spring.

“This generous donation allows us to provide students and alumni with a state-of-the-art conferencing center that will allow us to video conference anywhere in the world,” says Mark Zeigler, DC, president of Northwestern. “Additionally, the new Integrity Management Student, Alumni and Career Services Center will provide students and alumni with the resources they need to start and continue a successful career.”

The next phase will be the construction of the new building, which will include 48,000 square feet of space on three floors. After it is completed, renovations to the existing building will begin, including construction of a new tiered classroom that can be divided into two separate classrooms. Other projects include a centralized entry point and an updated foyer and cafeteria.

“We are excited to contribute to Northwestern’s capital campaign by funding the Integrity Management Student, Alumni and Career Services Center,” says Integrity Management CEO Keith Maule. “Integrity Management is committed to providing Northwestern students with the tools they need to build successful practices after graduation.”

With the Integrity Management donation, total giving to Northwestern’s “Imagine Our Future” campaign tops $3.1 million, including a $1 million donation from Foot Levelers Inc.; a $1 million donation from Northwestern alumnus David Stussy, DC; a $500,000 donation from William Harris, DC; and a $100,000 donation from Jack Holtz, DC, and his wife Joan.

Integrity Management is a practice management company that motivates clients to achieve their highest potential in their personal and professional lives. “Integrity Management has doubled in size in the last two years, with more than 3,000 doctors and staff at each seminar session providing more coaches, bigger seminars and better service,” says Maule. “The Integrity Management clients’ success rate is astounding, setting a new standard of practice size and prestige in the profession.”

Endowment Fund Created in the Name of Northwestern Alumnus

Northwestern Health Sciences University has announced a new endowment fund in the name of Chad Henriksen, DC, a 1995 graduate of Northwestern College of Chiropractic.

The endowment was announced at a fundraiser for Dr. Henriksen and his family on March 3. Dr. Henriksen is suffering from cancer. About 200 people were expected at the event; nearly 700 attended.

“It was incredible,” said Brady Forseth, BA, Northwestern’s chief development officer and a friend of Dr. Henriksen’s. “The amount of support was overwhelming!”

The details of what the endowment fund will support are currently being put together. At present, it is expected that a percentage of the proceeds from the annual President’s Invitational will be placed into the fund.

“Dr. Henriksen has done so much for Northwestern,” said Forseth. “He has been very involved in the success of the President’s Invitational. He has also played a key role in the development of a partnership with the Starkey Labs and the Starkey Hearing Foundation. He’s been a great friend of the University.”
