Letter from the President & Executive Director 


Foundation



Dear Friends,

Thank you for helping us make a difference in the lives of others!

Our friends and neighbors – students graduating from high school, veterans who are coming home, men and women of all ages wanting to earn their high school credential, people changing careers, individuals needing new job skills, businesses and manufacturers requiring leading-edge training for their employees, or people interested in enrichment experiences – have turned to Fox Valley Technical College for the education, training, and opportunity they need.

During the past academic year, Fox Valley Technical College served nearly 50,000 people. On average, 88% of our graduates were employed within six months of graduation; and 70% remained employed in the district we serve, even after five years. We provided 1,600 employers and 22,000 employees with specialized contract training. The number of high school graduates attending FVTC directly from high school doubled in the past three years.

Together, we have achieved impressive results. Because of your generosity and your kind and caring hearts, the FVTC Foundation awarded nearly 1,000 scholarships, totaling more than $617,500, to students who talk about what it means to have people they don’t even know believe in them. Through our long and valued relationships and your financial and in-kind contributions, the Foundation was able to provide more than $4.3 million in program support to the College. And last but certainly not least, your confidence in, and commitment to, Fox Valley Technical College helped us pass a $66.5 million referendum by an extremely strong 2-to-1 vote.

For more than 100 years, Fox Valley Technical College has contributed to our region’s quality of life. And for more than 35 years, the Fox Valley Technical College Foundation has been proud to partner with the College to secure resources that promote lifelong learning and workforce development throughout the communities we serve.

On behalf of the board of directors and the Fox Valley Technical College Foundation Team, we sincerely thank YOU for everything you do; and we wish you and your families a most special holiday season.

Gratefully,
Steve
