Partnership for the Future Endowment & Capital Campaign A Huge Success!
Union County College Foundation and Union County College's historic and successful
Capital Campaign - Partnership for the Future ended on December 31, 2006. The Campaign
goal of $7,500,000 has been met and exceeded.
The Campaign was undertaken to address the challenges of increasing enrollments,
growing student financial needs that could not be met, and the necessity to provide
the planned new Elizabeth campus building with state-of-the-art equipment.
Mr. Victor M. Richel, Chairman of the Union County College Board of Trustees, College
Governor and former Vice Chairman of Independence Community Bank, serves as Chairman
of the Partnership for the Future Campaign. He launched the public phase of the
campaign at the UCC Foundation's Gala on October 25, 2003 with the exciting
announcement that more than $3,100,000 million dollars had been raised toward the
campaign goal.
Campaign fundraising will provide:
- $5,000,000 in permanent endowment funds for critical student scholarships that
will enable deserving and talented students to pursue and complete their education
at UCC.
- $2,500,000 to equip a new building that will more than double the existing space
at the Elizabeth campus - UCC's most rapidly growing campus - and provide
state-of-the-art computer labs, classrooms and a media center for a vibrant
center of learning.
With a growing student body, enviable institutional stability, and an outstanding
record of serving the higher education needs of the community since 1933, Union
County College and the UCC Foundation are proud and pleased to successfully complete
the Partnership for the Future Campaign, thereby assuring that a lasting legacy will
be left to meet future student needs.
Union County College and the UCC Foundation
salute all the donors to the Partnership for the
Future Endowment & Capital Campaign.
THANK YOU!!
