Community college foundations often spend too much time on administrative tasks and not enough time building donor relationships. Foundation Forward fixes that. We help foundations identify and fill operational gaps, strengthen policies and procedures, train staff and build donor-first systems that last. Because Foundation teams could focus less on administrative work, they could focus more on their donors and thus raise more money for their students.
