Many community colleges focus on fundraising strategy while overlooking the operational infrastructure that enables sustainable growth. Gift acceptance policies, donor management procedures, board responsibilities, campaign readiness standards, prospect management practices, and advancement governance can all significantly influence fundraising performance.


Drawing from recent policy audits and organizational assessments, this session examines the policies and procedures that most directly impact fundraising success. Participants will leave with practical tools to evaluate their own advancement operations and identify opportunities for improvement.


Whether you are part of a statewide system, a multi-campus district, or a single college, attendees will leave with actionable strategies to improve collaboration, clarify fundraising roles, and strengthen philanthropic outcomes.
