THE ART OF FUNDRAISING Associate Groups Launch New Initiatives

With such far-reaching educational, athletic and arts programs, Santa Ana College has many needs for funding its diverse offerings. Working in collaboration with the deans and faculty of various departments, the SAC Foundation has fostered Associate Groups to launch their own fundraising efforts. This synergy creates a shared responsibility and an exciting dynamic.

Formed approximately 1.5 years ago, Friends of the Theatre has raised almost $21,000 through its outreach to the business community, according to Associate Professor Chris Cannon. The annual memberships are tax-deductible, and the funds support the Theatre Arts Department’s mission to prepare students for successful transfer to professional careers in some capacity in the performing arts. Two of the department’s students were recently awarded eligibility in the Screen Actors Guild, a rare occurrence for actors still attending school.

They were cast in a professional web series as a direct result of the professional relationships the department has developed. To celebrate SAC’s 100th anniversary, as well as Latino heritage and culture, the Theatre Department will stage a return of “Zoot Suit”, featuring original cast member and film and TV actor Mike Gomez.

PRESIDENT’S CIRCLE SPARKS UNIQUE BOND

President’s Circle, fostered by Dr. Erlinda Martinez and the Santa Ana College Foundation Board of Directors, includes more than 40 members who donate unrestricted funds that not only meet the urgent needs of SAC students, but also directly support ALL of the work of the Foundation throughout the year. Since its inception in 2007, President’s Circle members have raised nearly a quarter million dollars of unrestricted funds for students and the Foundation’s greatest needs.

Members of the President’s Circle receive unique opportunities and invitations, in addition to the satisfaction of playing a significant role in the education of deserving students. These include special events such as the Pageant of the Trees, President’s Circle Reception, President’s Night at the Theatre, and campus events and lectures throughout the year.

At many of these events, the SAC Foundation showcases one of its amazing scholarship recipients. At a President’s Circle Donnie Crevier and Ramiro Ochoa Reception last year Ramiro Ochoa was that student. He never imagined that his speaking at that event would strike a chord with President’s Circle member and longtime BMW “To me, it is double the fun to be in a dealership owner Donnie Crevier and spark a friendship that position where we can help such a deserving would change his life. student.

SPECIAL FUNDING STRENGTHENS COLLEGE PROGRAMS

Helping hundreds of students every year to continue their college educations, the Santa Ana College Foundation aids them with scholarships responding to a broad range of needs. The needs are many and diverse. In addition, the SAC Foundation Board of Directors, with college leaders, continues to cultivate and facilitate relationships with corporate and industry partners to strengthen our academic programs. Moving towards strong partnerships that involve the public/private sectors is critical for the overall advancement of Santa Ana College.

FIRST AMERICAN FINANCIAL CORPORATION This company continues to be a pillar of support to Santa Ana College and its Foundation. “Our major annual fundraiser, ‘Pageant of the Trees,’ owes much of its success to its location at First American’s beautiful headquarters,” says Christina Romero. This year’s event raised more than $33,000 for scholarships awarded through the SAC Foundation. In addition, First American supports the Ed Arnold Golf Classic, which raised more than $48,000 that is used to support the Athletic Hall of Fame and student athlete scholarships.

Your support will help SAC’s students to succeed and provides a lasting legacy for future generations.

Now more than ever, supporting community colleges contributes to the strength of a community and its citizens. Santa Ana College educates the Orange County community, trains its workforce, and provides access to countless educational and vocational opportunities.

Community colleges, though state supported, SANTA ANA COLLEGE often lack the alumni structure and support that FOUNDATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS four-year colleges and universities enjoy. The Ken Purcell, President Santa Ana College Foundation helps to endow Ed Halverson, Vice President programs and scholarships that enhance our Tony Ellis, Secretary Fortino Rivera, Treasurer students’ chances for success.
