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 Broadway cast member and film and TV actor Mike Gomez.

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.
