Report to the Community 1

A Foundation for Students Between the lines in our annual report, there is something called heart. All of the positive news, impressive facts and figures are generated by people who care about students, their future and the quality of life in our community. Each contributor to the FCCJ Foundation gives so that another student might have an opportunity for a college education and a proud, fulfilling career.

We acknowledge each and every donor, and offer this message of deep appreciation on behalf of all Florida Community College students –– thousands each year who will have a better life because of this generous outpouring of support.

We also wish to recognize and thank our dedicated Foundation Board of Directors for their exceptional service to the College.

A Word From the Foundation PresidentSince its inception, Florida Community College has balanced its dual mission of university transfer and career related education within the context of a tuition structure that is affordable for most, but not all students. Our Foundation exists to fill this gap by providing scholarships to those who otherwise could not achieve their goals of earning a college degree.

At the same time, the College is renowned for being responsive to the community’s ever-changing needs. Most recently, the addition of baccalaureate degrees in specific high demand areas have been developed to increase opportunities for training in fire science management, computer networking, nursing and business. The Foundation is dedicated to supporting Florida Community College and elevating the quality of life for all citizens on the First Coast.

A scholarship endowment that

will extend the promise of higher

education to hundreds of capable low-

income students each year is the best

immediate and sustainable means

of increasing economic opportunity,

quality of life and per-capita income in

our community.

Doubling the Dollars, Doubling the DifferenceHenri Landwirth knows better than most people what it feels like to have no control of your own destiny. At 13, he was shipped to the first of many concentration camps where he would spend the next five years.

Following World War II, Landwirth came to America. He served in the military and attended college on the G.I. bill. He then embarked on a successful career in the hotel business. But through it all, he was left with a feeling that things should be different and this motivated him to make things better.

He founded several foundations, along the way receiving an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from the University of Cincinnati. Through his work in Jacksonville, Landwirth met Florida Community College President Steven Wallace and learned that the College helps students transform their lives.

Landwirth established a scholarship fund and in the first year 15 students were served.

At the end of the 2008 school year, 40 to 50 Landwirth Scholars will be earning their degrees. Like all scholarship gifts, Landwirth’s is eligible for a dollar-for-dollar state match, doubling its impact.

Landwirth speaks to student groups at the College and educates young students on the dangers of hate.

Landwirth said, “I get inspired by the students. I get inspired by them asking good questions. I can’t wait to come here.”

Keeping Families TogetherStudents at the Lewis “Red” Bean Nassau Technical Career Center already have the lifelong opportunity for professional training. Thanks to Robert and Winette Odom, Nassau County students attending classes at the Bean Center will also have help paying for college.

Winette, a fifth-generation Floridian and longtime community volunteer, said they support programs that benefit children and families.

“That’s where our heart is,” she said. “We have been so blessed. We always try to put back.”

Robert agreed.

What we had in mind

for the scholarship was

to give it to married

people who were

displaced in their jobs.

Maybe this will help

keep a family together.

A scholarship for first generation college students has been established by the Jacksonville-based Rayonier Foundation.

Formed in 1952 by the international forest products company whose core businesses are timber, real estate and performance fibers, the Rayonier Foundation has long supported education, according to Vice President of Corporate Relations and President of the Rayonier Foundation, Jay Fredericksen.

In targeting students whose guardian parents do not have bachelor’s degrees, Fredericksen said Rayonier felt it could maximize its investment in the community with this scholarship.

“We’re hoping our money will help people with limited financial resources or less opportunities,” he said. “It’s what students need in order to take that next step to success.”

Partnering with Florida Community College was an easy decision, he added.

“It wasn’t a stretch for us to say, here’s an organization we know does a great job and provides a lot of opportunity to people who need it.” As with all contributions to scholarships, Rayonier’s will be matched by the state.

I’m one of ten children. In 2002, one

of my own children was born with birth

me to focus on school and to achieve

the goal of educating my children

dreams.

Bachelor of Science in Nursing Fills NeedIn response to the community’s continuing need for well-trained nurses in a variety of specialties, FCCJ has been approved to offer a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing with a focus in critical patient care. The new B.S.N. program targets nursing positions for which a four-year degree with an area of specialization is desired by hospital CEOs and chief nurse executives. The proposed degree will increase access for student populations who, in most cases, would not otherwise be able to participate in baccalaureate-level education in nursing, and will respond to significant needs identified by area employers, addressing educational and career advancement needs of incumbent and future workers in nursing. The proposed degree program would affirm North Florida’s response to the nursing shortage and provide highly skilled critical care nurses.

LandMar Gift Recognizes PotentialThe LandMar Group, a developer of residential communities, is known for recognizing potential. Since its founding in 1987, the company excelled at identifying emerging areas that would one day be “winners.”

The recently established LandMar Group Endowed Scholarship at Florida Community College also recognizes potential. It looks not at just where students stand today, but where they can be headed with a little help.

“By supporting the College, we are able to help improve workforce readiness by assisting young people to improve their skills and training,” said Jim Doyle, Vice President of Marketing and Sales. “This in turn makes Jacksonville and Northeast Florida a better place to live and a more attractive place for businesses considering relocation.”

The gift was eligible for a dollar-for-dollar state match, and supports students who are enrolled either full- or part-time at the College in any degree-awarding program.

I’m really proud of myself now. I went through some things that made me mature and grow and I realize that everyone doesn’t have the opportunity to get an education. You never know who you’ll meet that will help you get to the next level, or open a door that wouldn’t be open to you. The main thing is to try to do something. Give me the chance and I’ll make the most of it.

TSIC Partnership Means Success Begins Early in Nassau CountyThey say an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and a program affiliation that began at the Betty P. Cook Nassau Center in 2006 proved the point. Take Stock in Children (TSIC) identifies financially-challenged students in middle school and offers them the opportunity to earn four years of college tuition. The teens, all Nassau County public school students, sign an agreement to keep their grades up and stay out of trouble. Each is matched with an adult mentor who meets with them once a week to listen, encourage and offer guidance. When the students successfully graduate high school, most attend Florida Community College for the first two years, then transfer to a state university. Program Director Jody Mackle said the first year at the Cook Center was ideal. “It’s kind of a natural place for us to be because it’s the center of the county,” she said. “Being here helps us keep in closer touch with our students. It’s been terrific.” The program is funded by grants and private donations and managed by the College, with contributions to TSIC flowing through the Foundation. The Florida Pre-Paid Plan provides matching funds for tuition.

One Seed Grows a Big Crop at the Women’s CenterSometimes all it takes is one person or group to act, and the deed flourishes into much more. The “Bridging the Digital Divide for Displaced Homemakers” program at the College’s Rosanne R. Hartwell Women’s Center was made possible through such a strategy. Members of the Women’s Giving Alliance pool their individual annual contributions for community grants. Their initial gift to fund this program was matched by the state and then re-funded for next year. The merits of the program itself helped draw the funding. Through the Challenge Program for Displaced Homemakers, a three-week class provides employment skills and career counseling to women whose former roles changed due to divorce, separation or a spouse’s death. The grant from the Women’s Giving Alliance enables these women to enroll in basic computer classes and become computer literate. At the end of three weeks, they are prepared to either re-enter the workforce or go back to college.

The Florida Association of Community Colleges this year recognized the program with the Innovators’ Exemplary Practice Award, and 115 women were put on the path to self-sufficiency.

I enjoy coming to school. Most of my teachers go out of their way to help a student out. They have good office hours if I need to talk to them and they really check their e-mail. I’m excited about the scholarship because it allows me to not put extra stress on my mother.

Pathways to SuccessLocated at Florida Community College’s Downtown Campus, Pathways Academy Charter High School opened its doors in August of 2006. Although charter high schools affiliated with community colleges are not uncommon in the United States, Pathways is unique in its focus on students who have dropped out or who are at high risk of dropping out of traditional high schools.

The Pathways model, designed to provide students with the opportunity to complete a traditional high school diploma in addition to completing college course work, continues to evolve to meet the unique needs of its student population. This innovative partnership, which serves students who do not ordinarily have the opportunity to be located on a college campus while attending high school, is a true innovation that is changing the lives of young people who may not have otherwise pursued their educational opportunities.

Brittany Barnhart, a Pathways student who, at one time, lived in a domestic violence shelter with her mother and siblings and who did not see college as a possibility, was invited to give the keynote address at the Jobs for America’s Graduates National Student Leadership Conference in Washington D.C. in December, 2007. Last semester, Brittany successfully completed her high school graduation requirements and 12 credit hours through dual enrollment at Pathways and Florida Community College. She is currently enrolled full-time at the College and is on her way to fulfilling her dream of becoming a physician assistant.

Virtual CruiseIn only its second year, the Set Sail to Achieve the Dream Virtual Cruise established itself as a successful fundraiser for the FCCJ Foundation — and one of Jacksonville’s up-and-coming events!

The night began in the specially transformed Deerwood Center with a bon voyage reception hosted by co-chairs James and Mary Winston and FCCJ President Steven Wallace. From there, the evening showcased some of the College’s many programs, including visual and performing arts. The Caribbean marketplace offered wares and wonders of the virtual islands featuring items made by FCCJ students and faculty.

At the Lucky $$ Casino, passengers played for chances to win prizes donated by area businesses and by programs at the College, such as a gourmet meal in the North Campus Mallard Room or tickets for Artist Series performances. Guests also watched as talented FCCJ students and faculty members created beautiful paintings, had a picture taken in the photo gallery, and tried to choose from the plentiful array of desserts prepared by Culinary Arts students.

The event raised in excess of $60,000, of which $36,000 was submitted for a matching grant, resulting in over $90,000 raised to support first-generation college students. Jacksonville-based Rayonier Foundation was the event’s title sponsor and established the Rayonier Foundation Scholarship to benefit first-generation college students.

Make plans now to join us as we set sail for Venice during our 2009 virtual cruise scheduled for March 7, 2009, at the College’s Deerwood Center.

Community Enrichment

FCCJ Golf Classic Raises More Than $20,000 for Athletic ScholarshipsThe April 2007 Golf Classic, held at St. Johns County’s Palencia Golf Club, raised $20,660 for scholarships. That money will be effectively doubled by the Dr. Philip Benjamin Matching Grant program.

The course was packed with 104 eager golfers, including 25 student-athletes. Another 20 volunteers made the event a success through their gifts of time and labor. Results of the 2008 FCCJ Golf Classic will be announced soon.

First Coast Community Music SchoolBefore the opening of the First Coast Community Music School (FCCMS), most residents were unaware of how much better things could be with a place where people from all backgrounds, ages and financial abilities could learn music.

Jane Condon knew. As the first principal of arts magnets, La Villa Middle School of the Arts and Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, she knew that Florida schools had shifted away from the arts.

She also knew there were more than 300 community music schools across the country, and that Jacksonville was likely the largest city still without such a resource. There was only one problem.

“It became clear to me that Jacksonville was not in a position to build, fund and run, from the ground up, such a facility,” Condon said. “But Florida Community College has programs

all over the area. Jim Winston, one of our supporters, came to College President Steve Wallace, and now, here we are.”

After its first year ended in July 2007, the school had 200 students, 160 summer camp participants and 37 faculty members.

FCCMS’s first location was at South Campus, since the College’s own performing arts programs are based there. To achieve one of its original goals of increasing diversity, the Community Music School has now opened its second site at the College’s North Campus.

“All people need music. It just makes you have a better soul,” Condon said with a smile. “Until now, there has not been a place in Jacksonville for that to happen. People are happy we’re here.”

For more information on how you can support the First Coast Community Music School, contact the FCCJ Foundation at (904) 632-3237.

Artist SeriesThe FCCJ Artist Series grossed over $11.4 million in revenue during Fiscal Year 2007, its best year ever. The Series presented 72 productions for 303 performances or services and was anchored by several long-running productions such as — The Lion King and Menopause, the Musical. Contributions reached an all-time high of $221,683 which, after expenses, was matched by the State of Florida.

As of June 30, 2007, the Artist Series Scholarship Endowment had assets of over $6.3 million. The endowment earnings provide support to the student performing arts talent grant program. A second Artist Series Endowment of over $2.1 million provides program support to the Series and to student performing arts groups.

The State of Florida continues to recognize the Series status as one of Florida’s Major Cultural Institutions in the Sponsor/Presenter category. One of eight organizations in Florida to receive this designation, the Artist Series is the only organization in North Florida to receive this honor. The designation also comes with a major grant projected to total in excess of $350,000 over a four-year period: 2007–2011.

Ways to Give


There are so many ways to support

the students and programs at

Florida Community College that you

may not know about all of them —

or their tax benefits.

Here are a few.Cash and gift pledges — If you or your spouse’s employer has a matching program for philanthropic gifts, we will work with you to request the matching funds and apply them to the fund of your choice.

Stocks and bonds — If you have held the asset for more than one year, you can deduct its fair market value, up to 30 percent of your adjusted gross income. You will also owe no capital gains tax on its transfer to the Foundation.

Real estate — Please contact us so we can meet with you to determine the best use of your property.

Equipment — The Foundation welcomes gifts of equipment of use to the College or that can be quickly sold. Please contact us to discuss your item.

Estate plan gifts — Your will can include any of the types of donations listed above, along with a specified percentage of your estate and/or the balance of your estate after providing for family members.

Life insurance — You can make a substantial gift with only modest premium payments, or through current policies no longer needed for family members.

Retirement accounts — You can name Florida Community College as a beneficiary for a portion of your IRA, profit-sharing account, or other retirement plan.

Charitable remainder trusts — A trust can provide lifelong income to you and your beneficiary, then pass the remaining assets to the College. This option is appropriate for those considering a gift of at least $50,000.

Charitable lead trusts — You can transfer assets to a trust for a fixed number of years with the interest going to the Foundation. When the trust terminates, the principal is distributed back to you or your beneficiaries. This is an ideal option is you do not need current income but want the asset to pass along to a future beneficiary.

Your qualified tax expert can give you information about how each option applies to your situation. Foundation staff members can also give more information about each type of gift.

Contact the Florida Community College Foundation at (904) 632-3237 for more information on how you can support the Foundation.

No matter how you choose to give, your donation to the Florida Community College Foundation will help ensure access to higher education and job training for those who need it, as well as improve the quality of life for the entire community.

Thank you!
