OVERVIEW
The Office of College Advancement promotes and supports the
mission of LCSC by encouraging, assisting and recognizing
friends and alumni in their quest to provide meaningful
financial support for the College and its students. It supports
and fosters the active participation of all alumni with their
alma mater.
OFFICE OF COLLEGE ADVANCEMENT
The Office of College Advancement encompasses the functions of
development and alumni relations. It provides day-to-day
management, operations and support for the Alumni Association
and the Foundation.
Development is the function
responsible for raising money for the College through the
Foundation, mainly through gifts from individuals, corporations
and foundations, and for maintaining gift records and
recognizing donors. College Advancement provides guidance to
college departments, clubs and organizations that seek to raise
money for their own projects and initiatives.
Alumni
Relations maintains the alumni database and, with the Alumni
Association, develops and implements activities and
communication vehicles for keeping in touch with LCSC alumni.
ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
The LCSC Alumni Association was founded as an independent
nonprofit organization in 1977. Established by a group of alumni
who wanted to assure continued relationships between LCSC and
its alumni, the Alumni Association promotes the role and mission
of the college and works to preserve and strengthen the
traditions of the college.
Members of the LCSC Alumni
Association include all graduates of the college and those
persons who have completed 24 credits at the college under any
of its names (Lewiston State Normal School, Northern Idaho
College of Education, Lewis-Clark Normal School or LCSC). A
board of directors governs the Alumni Association, which meets
numerous times throughout the academic year. Alumni Association
members are invited to the meetings and are encouraged to be
actively involved with the Alumni Association. Meeting
schedules and additional information can be obtained through the
Alumni Office or from
www.lcsc.edu/alumni.
FOUNDATION
Established in 1984 as a nonprofit educational foundation, the
Foundation is dedicated to providing a margin of excellence for
students. In securing resources beyond those provided through
state funding, the Foundation assures an educational experience
that is more financially accessible to students, as well as one
which is more well-rounded and complete.
The Foundation
provides support for a number of enhancement activities
including the Foundation Scholars Program, the Lewis- Clark
Center for Arts and History, Faculty Achievement Awards, and
other services and programs that lie outside the traditional
role of public funding. The LCSC Foundation manages and invests
gifts and assets, including funds supporting many programs and
scholarships for the maximum benefit of LCSC. For more
