VII.
Service Area’s major challenges during the past three years—that is, the aspects of the
Service Area that are most in need of improvement
Our strong point has been obtaining major gifts; however, more energy should be put into
building a base of supporters including alumni and planned giving. Looking forward, the
Planned Giving Council and Legacy Society hold huge promise for the institution; and need
dedicated staff. The office of Advancement currently has three staff members focused on
our donor base of 7,000; public grants; private grants and funding committees; and major
gifts and planned giving. This office oversees all the functions related to advancement and
the foundation and the Executive Director is directly involved with all major gifts and
planned giving. This challenge of this office is that the Executive Director does not have the
time to also engage with our alumni database of 40,000. The Executive Director will lead all
planned giving activities, however as this area expands and grows, there will be need for
expanded support in this major area of potential to the college. Planned Giving and Alumni
Relations should be more robust to build the base of support; this can only be accomplished
with additional staff resources.
VIII.
Brief summary of continuous quality improvement actions to be taken that will help the
Service Area build upon its strengths and address its challenges
Establish service area outcomes each year.
2013-14 Service Area Outcome
Grants Development will be a transparent and well communicated process adopted and
utilized by Hartnell College staff and faculty.
Assessment Method for Service Area Outcome
A new grants development process has been created in collaboration with the grants
committee and it has been presented and vetted by the grants oversight council,
advancement council, President’s cabinet and Academic Deans. It has been presented to
DSPS staff and at the Winter President’s Town Hall meeting. The process has been adopted
and it is being utilized by staff and faculty pursuing grant funding.
Evidence to support this will include meeting minutes, agendas, presentations, and copies of
grant concept forms signed and submitted by faculty, administrators, campus area Vice
President’s and the President Superintendent.
