FOUNDATION LEGACY CAMPAIGN

Investing in the future of Ocean County students

The OCC Foundation has been expanding its efforts on behalf of local students for more than 50 years. To continue that growth, which is essential to meet the needs of tomorrow’s students, the Foundation has launched a multi-year, $25 million Legacy Campaign, chaired by David C. Wintrode. Contributions will ensure scholarship and program support well into the future, and support fundraising efforts toward the expansion of the Grunin Center, the renovation of the planetarium into an immersive space and science experience, the establishment of a Foundation Art Collection and more. Pledges of over $1.5 million have been received so far.

“The campaign is dedicated to enhancing the Ocean County College experience, from expanding scholarships and graduating awards to increasing our support of domestic and international travel, vital to shaping a responsible and informed global citizen,” said Executive Director Kenneth Malagiere.

Planned giving options include wills and living trusts, beneficiary designations, charitable gift annuities, memorial and tribute gifts, and more. For information about these opportunities, contact the Ocean County College Foundation at 732-255-0492 or visit go.ocean.edu/foundation

“I believe the Ocean County College Foundation’s Legacy Campaign is the perfect vehicle to make a transformational gift that will help to ensure the success of our future leaders,” said Wintrode. “It is my hope that you, too, will partner with the Foundation in this endeavor to reach our goal of $25 million for the students of OCC.”
