The Fund Development Council (FDC) is a group of involved and engaged alumni leaders at the College. This group generously gives their time and treasure in an effort to positively impact the alumni community and helps engage people from all class years, backgrounds, and geographic locations.
FDC members play a central role in achieving Columbia College Fund’s annual fundraising goals. As alumni leaders, they are invited to exclusive events and have opportunities to connect with the dean of Columbia College and other senior leaders at Columbia.
Fund Development Council Co-Chairs
The co-chairs guide the strategic direction of the FDC. They meet monthly with College Fund staff to brainstorm ideas, make decisions on behalf of the FDC, elevate topics for discussion and offer the alumni perspective on items related to the College Fund.
