Letter from the Foundation Board Chair
When I am asked how I became involved with the College of Lake County, I
answer with several reasons: it offered one of my children a start to an advanced
degree and successful career; its excellent training programs and resources have been
a boon to the Lake County business community; it has given me the opportunity to
work with visionary leaders who share a passion for being agents of change rather
than passive observers; and it is an indispensable asset for Lake County students with
the desire to achieve a higher education without the burden of debt.
CLC’s affordable tuition and fees puts education within reach of thousands
of intelligent, hard-working people who would otherwise be unable to attend
college. However, with federal and state aid decreasing, the cost of a community
college education is still too high for many students. They are faced with the choice
of working multiple jobs, going into debt, or both. The CLC Foundation’s goal
is to provide life-changing support for these students: to help them achieve their
certification or degree, debt-free.
Quite simply, CLC represents a movement—a driving energy and optimism
that is fueling the future of Lake County. As a member of the Foundation Board, I
am proud to be one of 35 residents who have been inspired to volunteer their time
and talent to raise scholarship dollars and make the gift of education a reality for
more students. In FY 2015, we were able to award $909,223 to 509 students, but
there were many more unmet requests.
It is our goal to narrow that gap. Won’t you join us in the opportunity to make
a CLC student’s impossible dream become an achievable goal? If you already are
a scholarship donor, we thank you for your continued support. If you are not yet a
donor, your generous support will allow students who would otherwise be unable to
afford college a clear pathway to a brighter, more promising future.

GAME CHANGING YEAR
IMPOSSIBLE DREAMS BECOME ACHIEVABLE GOALS
This year, the College of Lake County Foundation focused on raising
funds for Scholarships and Grants supporting College of Lake
County students. Some significant results were:
• $909,223 was provided to College of Lake County for scholarships and grants to
509 students.
• $1,219,652 was raised from individuals, corporations, charitable foundations and
our annual Gala and Golf Classic.
• New donors such as Smalley Manufacturing invested in CLC students providing
equipment, scholarships, and internships to build a skilled workforce.
• A new strategic partnership was formed with One Million Degrees (OMD) bringing
to Lake County its highly effective student success program achieving record setting
grades and completion rates. CLC Foundation raised funds for a 40-scholar cohort.
• CLC Foundation embraced raising funds for a debt free CLC education. CLC
identified that the most pressing unmet student need for scholarship funding is
students caught in the middle. They earn too much for federal or state grants. This
means that they work and go to school part time or incur student loan debt or both
impacting grades, completion rates, and time to market for much needed skills.
• The CLC Foundation continues to receive strong support from the College of Lake
County in the form of donated services covering CLC Foundation staff and indirect
costs. The ROI is 69% on funds provided and 127% on funds raised.
• We upgraded to the industry standard for non-profit organizations and Community
College foundations implementing fund raising software - Raiser’s Edge and we
continued to build a new staff team to support achieving our fund raising goals.
• The College of Lake County and the College of Lake County Foundation
collaborated to share historical student data to engage and inspire CLC Alumni.
• The investment market was volatile resulting in investment returns of 1.52% on
average funds invested. We have investment earning reserves which allowed us to
award 4% on average balance for restricted and endowed scholarships for FY2016.
All of this was made possible by the continued generosity of our donors who are providing the
funding so that College of Lake County students can make their impossible dreams become
achievable goals. Thank you!
With deepest gratitude,

“Scholarships give me the
opportunity to place 100% of my
time and effort on my academic
goals. There are many hard
working students out there just
like me that just need the right
help financially.”

“Because of your amazing deed,
struggling college students like
me have less to worry about
financially. We are able to focus
on academics instead of picking
up another shift at work to pay for
tuition. Thank you!”
