For almost 180 years, The City College of New York (originally founded as The Free Academy) has welcomed generations of students to our campus to learn under the guidance of world-class faculty. Together, our students, staff and faculty look to address some of the greatest challenges faced by communities both local to the Harlem and greater New York area, and around the world.

It is in keeping with the tradition of providing access to excellence for our students that the City College Office of Institutional Advancement, Communications External Relations (OIACER), which manages the Foundation for City College, works to develop and support a strong foundation of resources required to fulfill the educational mission of The City College of New York.

The mission of the Foundation for City College, Inc. is to provide access to educational and research excellence, particularly to students who might not otherwise attend a senior college. Private gifts have the power to advance higher education, which transforms lives and communities and the Foundation strives to enrich the City College experience for students, faculty, and staff, and to work in collaboration with the President of The City College of New York to raise significant financial support from private sources, and to steward the Foundation's assets while serving as advocates for the College.

The Foundation supports a variety of programs at City College, including named professorships, advanced research operations, innovative programs leading to increased student success and campus-wide wellness opportunities, workforce development initiatives as well as special programs and lectures that bring some of the nation's top intellectuals to our campus. The vision of the Foundation for City College is to be the steward of The City College of New York through the Foundation's position as advocates for the College's endowment and to serve as a leader in accountability, stewardship, and overall commitment to excellence.

The Office of Institutional Advancement, Communications and External Relations (OIACER), on behalf of The Foundation for City College, secures sustainable philanthropy, builds transformational relationships, and advances powerful partnerships in alignment with The City College's mission, vision, and values. As an integral part of this extraordinary higher education enterprise, OIACER is a team-oriented division that upholds collaboration, invests in each colleague's successes, and endeavors to further cement the College's identity, innovation, and impact through private support.

A key element in this purposeful work is promoting Community Success and unwavering commitment to student success, faculty advancement, and staff support. OIACER raises funds and resources that fuel the achievements of students and support the holistic success of our vibrant academic community.
