As 2014 begins to unfold, we are especially grateful for our dedicated donors who help us fulfill the Foundation’s mission to “...secure financial resources for Florida State College at Jacksonville to provide students in need access to an affordable, quality education...” We are also deeply grateful for the expertise and smooth transition afforded by the leadership of Dr. Willis Holcombe as interim president. Today, we celebrate the arrival of Dr. Cynthia Bioteau, FSCJ’s fifth permanent president and first female CEO. The Foundation staff and board of directors are enthused about the selection of Dr. Bioteau and will be working closely with her to strengthen our strategic plan and establish new donor relationships. We are looking forward to tapping into Dr. Bioteau’s expertise in fundraising and community “friendraising” — that is, developing unique relationships with donors who will help us fulfill our mission. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Bioteau. We believe her arrival signifies the beginning of a new era for FSCJ and the Foundation.
