The Office of Institutional Advancement is committed to advocating Dominican College's vision for the future, and for fund raising initiatives in:
These initiatives are the focal point for campaigns, special events and activities. The success of the fund raising efforts is a testament to the philanthropic spirit of the communities the College serves.
New Campus Development
Mandated by the Board of Trustees, the development of the College's new campus on 26 acres engaged Institutional Advancement in two Capital Campaigns over the past seven years which raised almost $9 million to help build the Hennessy Center for Student Life, the Granito Center, Hertel Residence Hall.and the Prusmack Center for Health and Science Education.
Endowment Growth
The future of most institutions is dependent on their endowment. The College seeks to grow its endowment primarily from planned giving assets. Planned Giving is the process of providing for charitable gifts through estate bequests. The College is an affiliate member of Leave-a-Legacy of Rockand County which seeks to raise public awareness of charitable giving.
Enhanced Technology
All professions demand advanced technological skills in today's workplace. The graduates of our programs must be prepared to accept leadership roles within this market. The College is committed to the continuous enhancement of its technological resources. The recent installation of fiber optics cabling has connected all the campus buildings, provided internet access and e-mail addresses for the entire campus. The funding for this and future projects relies on operating capital which is enriched by proceeds from the Annual Fund Campaign.
Funded Scholarships
In a typical year, some 95% of Dominican College students will require some form of financial assistance. This is provided with donated scholarship funds, gifts to the Annual Fund, restricted contributions, or the accumulated interest from the endowed scholarship fund.
