Breaking Down Campus Silos1. Weekly Joint Meetings (Academic and Student Affairs VP’s and Deans)Academic Affairs and Students Services meet weekly to discuss issues and to assign projects to workgroups

2. Annual Week Long Dean’s AcademyAcademic Affairs and Students Services attend and participate in a weeklong Dean’s Academy, during this academy, the Deans and VP’s are trained on various topics. This time is used to brainstorm and create solutions relating to the state wide and campus-wide initiatives.

3. Joint Workgroups Implement Campus Wide InitiativesWorkgroups comprised of both Academic Affairs, Students Services and ASG carry out campus wide initiatives such as GP, SEM, and Strategic Planning.

4. Strategic Plan Includes Items Relating to Student HungerOur current strategic plan was produced and embraced by a workgroup comprised of administration, faculty, students and classified professionals. The strategic plan addressed the “whole student” (Academic Needs and Personal Needs).

Fundraising & Marketing to Sustain Basic Needs

Joshua RussellDirector of Marketing & Public Relations

My Background…is all over the place

• 8 years working in advertising & public relations• 12 years working in the nonprofit arts & culture

sector• 4 years in the corporate sector funding basic

needs and education• Now… 9 months in higher ed at EVC

My Perspective as a Basic Needs Funder

Funders don’t want to just give money, they want to get involved

Page 8: Using What You Have to Get What You Want · Using What You Have to Get What You Want Mark Gonzales Vice President of Academic Affairs Raniyah Johnson Director of Student Development

Funders like to support things that are tangible – “Our money is going to support what exactly? Can we put our name on it? Do have the opportunity for exclusivity?”

Page 9: Using What You Have to Get What You Want · Using What You Have to Get What You Want Mark Gonzales Vice President of Academic Affairs Raniyah Johnson Director of Student Development

Don’t get me wrong, corporate funders do like giving money… and presenting checks, because they provide great photo opps and they want their customers/ clients/ employees to know that they are supporting their communities

What I knew about Community Colleges and the real struggles their students face…

Page 11: Using What You Have to Get What You Want · Using What You Have to Get What You Want Mark Gonzales Vice President of Academic Affairs Raniyah Johnson Director of Student Development

NOTHING…Zero…Zip…Zilch

As a corporate funder, I was NEVER approached by any Community College (However BofA gave LOTS of money to Stanford, Santa Clara University and to

San Jose State University)

What Types of Things Might Resonate With a Corporate or Foundation Funder• Funding the creation or expansion of a permanent or

mobile food pantry• Funding or partnering on potential housing solutions

(tiny homes, home sharing, etc)• Nonprofit/CC collaborations: joint funding proposals• Events and activities that support diversity and cultural

inclusion (D&I)• Career pathways opportunities, especially for at-risk

students
