Office of Institutional Advancement 

The MCLA Office of Institutional Advancement includes alumni relations, fundraising, communications, conference planning, grants and the MCLA Foundation, Inc. These departments work together to support the goal of advancing the mission of the College.

One key program of the Office of Institutional Advancement, the Major Gift Initiative, supports the College's Strategic Plan. Specifically, the goal to "Strengthen the College's financial position." The Initiative, which began on July 1, 2006, has a goal of $10 million. To date, the College has raised almost 69% toward this goal. To learn more about the MCLA Major Gift Initiative and the different ways that you can support the College, please read our Major Gift Initiative Case Statement or contact Marianne Drake, Chief Advancement Officer at (413) 662-5229.
