ROBIN ’80 AND TIMOTHY ’80 WENTWORTH
Our Chance to Create Hope and Opportunity
For alumni Robin ’80 and Timothy “Tim” ’80 Wentworth, giving back to Monroe Community College is about
giving students hope for the future and the opportunity to start college.
For Tim, attending MCC was about taking responsibility. “Robin and I didn’t have the choice not to engage if we
wanted a better life,” he says. “MCC was our chance. Our chance to transfer to a four-year school. Our chance to
have a career rather than a job.”
As students, Tim and Robin worked hard, kept each other motivated, and developed their talents and love of
music. As successful alumni and parents, they are creating hope and opportunity for others with the help of
the Monroe Community College Foundation—motivating students to set higher goals and “engage in the
bigger world.”
“Education is the way to achievement in life and social mobility, no matter where you start,” Tim says. “MCC
allows people, especially those who may have lost hope, a place to start.”
In 2009, Robin and Tim gave music and business students hope through an endowed scholarship fund. They also
gave the college a magnificent Steinway piano on which students learn, compose and perform.
This spring, the Wentworths extended their support through their most recent gift of $2.25 million—the largest
gift in college history—to establish the Wentworth Family Scholarship program at MCC. The scholarship
program will give 40 students per year, in perpetuity, the opportunity to become educated at MCC—producing
graduates who will collectively impact the future of our community.
Robin hopes “this scholarship empowers students who can someday help others in a similar fashion.”
According to Tim, “To hear students say that they have set higher goals than they have ever had before … and
begin to have a vision of themselves as motivated and willing to give back. That’s what we want to hear back
from students.”
To give students hope and a place to start. This is why we’re here.
“Ten years from now, I hope people can look back
and say this gift was a seed in what is now a very
big forest. We are on the ground floor of creating
very bright futures.”
— TIMOTHY WENTWORTH ’80
“Gifts change the lives of our students.
This gift changed the lives of the donors.”
— DIANE L. SHOGER

MCC Faculty, Staff and Retiree Donors
Private and corporate donors, volunteers, friends,
Foundation directors and MCC Foundation staff
generate inspiring results for MCC students each
year. As individuals and as representatives of
organizations, we make a commitment to MCC
and are rewarded each time we witness the
transformative impact public higher education
has on students, families and employers.
Lives are changed through our efforts and
the scholarships and innovative programs
we make possible each year.
This is why we’re here.
WHY WE’RE HERE
“One of the reasons we are successful as a Foundation is because we listen carefully to the voices of MCC
students and faculty. Hearing a student explain how a scholarship changed his or her life re-energizes our
commitment. Learning how faculty takes teaching to the next level at MCC keeps us informed, inspired
and impressed. They remind us why our work is vitally important to the future of our community.”
— DAVID J. MACK
CEO, MACKTRACK EXECUTIVE CONSULTING SERVICES;
CHAIR, MONROE COMMUNITY COLLEGE FOUNDATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS
“Thank you for supporting the Monroe Community College Foundation. It has become abundantly clear that
community colleges are no longer silent partners in an ever-changing educational partnership that must respond
to quick-moving trends, dramatic economic swings and unforeseen challenges. Our partnerships with private
and corporate philanthropists and foundations keep MCC responsive to student and community needs. ”

PRESIDENT, MONROE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
“Over the past seven years, I have had the opportunity to talk with students to whom a scholarship meant the
world—literally. While some may choose to measure return on investment in terms of economic impact and
increased earning potential, nothing comes close to the pure joy shown on the faces of those who receive
a chance to complete a college degree.”

“Recently, story after story has called into question the value of a college degree. While we might hope that the
value of MCC is self-evident, the reality is that the world seems to have adopted the old institutional research
saying, ’In God we trust, all others must bring data.’ Thanks to Foundation supporters and the scholarships they
make available, more students benefit from an MCC education and have a measurable economic impact on our
community. Your investment in our students is truly adding value to their lives and to our region; because of your
generosity, we all benefit. Thank you!”

resources in order to keep public higher education accessible and quality-focused. Their dedication and
tireless advocacy inspires current and prospective supporters to prioritize the MCC Foundation among

Inspired by two White House initiatives and the State University of New York’s emphasis on economic
revitalization and enhanced quality of life, the MCC Foundation has made funding of student scholarships
its primary focus. A proven investment, scholarships support our region’s economic growth while helping to
ensure that our best and brightest can reach their potential here at home.
OUR GOAL IS CLEAR.
Every deserving student will receive the scholarship support they need to complete their educational
goals at Monroe Community College. This is why we’re here.

“The Thompson Family Scholarship changed
my life and the lives of my four children.”
— KERRI GUZMAN, HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MAJOR
Inspired by a $100,000 matching gift pledge from John ’64 and Mary Thompson, a group of
MCC Foundation Directors launched the STAR Power Women’s Giving Initiative in May at
a reception hosted by MCC President Anne M. Kress. The initiative seeks to raise $20,000
per year ($100,000 total) over five years to secure the match and reinforce the fund that has
touched the lives of nearly 900 students, mostly single parents, since 1995. At press time, the
goal had already been exceeded!

SECRET TO HER SUCCESS
Recent MCC Alumni Hall of Fame inductee Cerri A. Banks,
Ph.D. ’97 advised the Class of 2013 to “find and accomplish
your noble purpose and then find more than one. …
Decide what you will offer a world that needs so much.”
During her Commencement keynote, she described how her
educational journey began at MCC’s Damon City Campus,
setting the foundation for her current role as vice president
for student affairs and dean of the college at Mount Holyoke
College in South Hampton, Massachusetts. She believes her
success in the field of education is a direct result of starting
at MCC.
“You represent all ages, social classes
… and ways of thinking. You are the
United States of America, a living
example of this nation’s diversity.”

JPMorgan Chase gave $50,000 to the MCC Foundation
in July to support the ROC the Future initiative—
a collaboration of more than 100 community
organizations, including MCC, that aims to create a
cradle-to-career educational pipeline that aligns existing
resources to provide better support to children and their
families. Its goal addresses the need for improved student
outcomes that lead to college and career readiness. This
gift allows MCC to serve as a base of operations for ROC
the Future and provides the necessary infrastructure so
the program can have an immediate impact on the future
of Rochester’s children.

HOPE IN RESPONSE TO A TRAGEDY
In response to the tragic loss of West Webster Fire Department
volunteers MCC alumnus Lt. Michael “Chip” Chiapperini ’89 and
student Tomasz Kaczowka on December 24, 2012, the Wheeler
Family of Naples, Florida, reached out to the MCC Foundation and
established a memorial scholarship. The Lt. Michael J. Chiapperini
and Tomasz M. Kaczowka Memorial Scholarship, established with
a $10,000 pledge, honors their service and sacrifice by providing
support to students enrolled in MCC’s Fire Protection Technology
program—supporting the success of our community’s next
generation of firefighters.
The Wheelers’ gift motivated many in the college family to also
support the fund. Employees of Brite Computers’ Public Safety
Division Computing Group, which worked often with Chiapperini
and considered him a friend, gave more than $1,000 to the fund.
Brite Computers owners John ’71 and Justin Smith matched the
employee donations. Brite corporate partner Vigilant Solutions
also contributed $500.
In August, the West Webster Volunteer Firemens’ Association
contributed $15,000 to the fund to help endow it in perpetuity.
"Assisting young men and women to earn a degree in Fire Protection

JUKE BOX HERO
Award-winning musician, songwriter, and MCC Alumni Hall of Fame
member Lou Gramm ’71 launched his autobiography, Juke Box Hero:
My Five Decades in Rock ’n’ Roll (Triumph Books) at MCC in May. More
than 300 fans were captivated during a live interview and performance
of Gramm’s greatest hits. Fans also spoke individually with Gramm
and received a signed copy of the book, co-written with Scott Pitoniak.
Gramm gave a portion of the proceeds to the Foundation to support
those following in his footsteps at MCC.
“I was a determined young man. I had a vision
for my life and I followed it.”

GOLF BALLS ON PARADE
The MCC Foundation and the MCC Association were proud to participate in Golf
Balls on Parade—a community relations arts project and charitable initiative produced
by Dixon Schwabl. MCC professors Kathy Farrell and Peter Monacelli designed the
MCC golf ball displayed on the Brighton Campus. In addition to renewing pride in our
community, a portion of the sponsorship proceeds of each golf ball supports the Golisano
Children’s Hospital, Reach for the Green and the Hillside Work-Scholarship Connection.
Sponsorship of the MCC golf ball also benefitted the MCC Annual Fund.

23RD ANNUAL SALUTE TO EXCELLENCE
15TH ANNUAL GOLD STAR GALA
GOLDENEYE GALA, A DOUBLE-O BLOWOUT PRESENTED BY M&T BANK
The Salute to Excellence dinner held at the Rochester Riverside Convention Center in November 2012 was
remarkable for many reasons: deserving honorees, more guests than ever before, a new fundraising record and the
debut of a new Salute award, an original glass sculpture by artist Milon Townsend.
The MCC family applauded Salute honoree Corning Incorporated Foundation for its leadership, philanthropy
and partnership to attract more students to science, technology, engineering, mathematics and career technical
fields. Donald McCabe, Jr., senior vice president of manufacturing and performance excellence for Corning
Incorporated, served as the honorary event chair. Corning Incorporated Foundation President Karen C. Martin
accepted the award. Students participating in optics programs at local high schools and at MCC attended the event
and enjoyed opportunities to network with local employers.
The applause continued as guests were reminded of the many accomplishments and contributions of MCC alumni
as Cerri A. Banks, Ph.D. ’97, Richard C. Brienzi ’79 Peter Monacelli ’73 and James M. Sydor ’71 were inducted into
the MCC Alumni Hall of Fame. Alumni continue to be the greatest source of pride and inspiration for the college

The gala, held in April 2013 at the Country Club of Rochester, shattered previous event records, raising more than
$200,000 (net) and creating 47 named scholarships to support student success at MCC. M&T Bank returned as
the presenting sponsor for the 8th year in a row.
Honorary Chairs Danny and Stency Wegman, and Dinner Chairs Duff y Palmer and Foundation Director Mark
Siwiec, helped create the most creative and successful event in Foundation history. Dixon Schwabl’s creative team
transformed the Country Club of Rochester into a casino royale, villain’s lair and an alpine wonderland. Charles
Benoit ’84 greeted and entertained guests as fictional supervillain Ernst Stavro Blofeld from James Bond films.

29TH ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIP OPEN
The Monroe Community College Foundation’s 29th Annual Scholarship Open, held at the beautiful Country
Club of Rochester in June 2013, raised a record $116,000 (net) to support scholarships for deserving MCC
students. Gary Squires ’76 of Manning Squires Hennig returned as event co-chair and was joined by Fritz
Odenbach of The Dolomite Group.
The following donors believed one of the best ways to honor or memorialize a family member or friend was
through a gift to the MCC Foundation. Honors and memorials are Annual Fund gifts. Donors of $1,000 or more
are also recognized as members of leadership giving societies within the overall MCC Annual Fund Donor listing.
MCC graphic arts student Andrew Hill shared his story about how receiving the Native American Education
Scholarship changed his life. His story inspired guests to raise their hands and give $37,000 during the Scholarship
Call facilitated by Don Jeffries ’71.

ENDOWMENTS AND ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIPS
DISTINGUISHED GIVING SOCIETIES
Planned giving is a smart way to reduce the tax burden on an estate and maximize an estate’s value to beneficiaries.
By including the MCC Foundation in your will or naming the Foundation as a beneficiary on a retirement plan or life insurance
policy, you will reap the tax benefits now while supporting the future of public higher education in our community. Be sure to
contact the MCC Foundation regarding your decision to make a planned gift so that you will be recognized as a member of
the Alice Holloway Young Society.
One of the most valuable benefits of an MCC education is its affordable tuition. For hundreds of students, however, tuition still
remains a barrier to enrollment. In today’s economy, helping students and families answer the question of how to pay for college is
more important than ever before. MCC is committed to providing scholarships to help offset the rising costs of education; donors
to the MCC Foundation play an important role in delivering on that promise.
ALICE HOLLOWAY YOUNG SOCIETY
Founding Trustee and Board Chair Emerita Alice Holloway Young, Ed.D. was among the first
to believe that a community college would benefit Rochester and its people. She helped launch
the college in 1961 and remains dedicated today to the vital role public higher education plays in
creating a bright future for our community. The Alice Holloway Young Society was established
in 1994 to recognize individuals who have advised the MCC Foundation of their intent to benefit
the college through a planned gift. Members of the Alice Holloway Young Society include:
Brenda & Paul Babitz

E. KENT DAMON LIFETIME GIVING SOCIETY
The Monroe Community College family remains grateful for the philanthropy and friendship of

giving was imperative to the college’s future. Mr. Damon is remembered through this giving

the Foundation and, in return, the Foundation makes lifetime payments to the donor. Benefits of a charitable gift
annuity can be impressive. Donors receive an immediate income tax deduction and avoid upfront capital gains tax
upon transfer.
