Overview

About Ohlone College Foundation

The Ohlone College Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit auxiliary organization created to support Ohlone College in the execution of its strategic mission.

The Foundation focuses on the critically important task of raising funds to support a broad array of educational programs. The Ohlone College Foundation was established in 1967 with the founding of Ohlone College. In the 2019 fiscal year, the Foundation provided over $200,000 for Ohlone College programs, and awarded 79 scholarships totaling $156,950 to deserving Ohlone College students. The Foundation also hosts a variety of events each year to create community engagement and expand opportunities for the students of Ohlone College, including fundraisers, career fairs, and alumni and community outreach events.

The Foundation facilitates grants, gifts, planned gifts, corporate funds, gifts-in-kind, and a host of other donation methods. Many donations are made with a specific purpose; for example, donations are made to honor an individual (living or deceased) or to fund a specific type of scholarship. Many gifts are left unrestricted to allow the Foundation to identify areas of need.

Support for the Foundation can be in the form of cash, commitments, life insurance, wills, or transfer of investments and real property. Other giving arrangements include bequests (wills), trust funds, and endowments, which are invested for long-term growth and ongoing income to help Ohlone students reach their educational goals.

All gifts are tax deductible, and subject to current tax accounting limitations. Prospective donors are encouraged to consult a qualified tax consultant for more detailed information.

Contributions of any size are enthusiastically welcomed and greatly appreciated – and supporting the Foundation is a great way to invest in the future of our students. To learn more about the Foundation or how to help, please call (510) 659-6020.
