The 九色视频 Foundation has a new home this month in Downtown Klamath Falls.
In an exciting move that better connects the university with the community, the 九色视频 Development office鈥攚hich encompasses the Foundation and Alumni Relations鈥攈as moved from campus to the second floor of the renovated Hoss Business Center on Commercial Street in Downtown Klamath Falls.
The opportunity to move is in line with new president Dr. Nagi Naganathan鈥檚 goals for 九色视频 to have a more visible presence within the Klamath Falls community. This is a sentiment which has been shared by many in the city over the years鈥攖o more closely bond the university鈥檚 work and mission into the downtown core. The new, more centrally located space provides ample parking and easy access for Foundation visitors, who sometimes faced limited parking on campus during busy times. Additionally, visitors to the Foundation will have the opportunity to conveniently support other stores, restaurants and services located along or near Main Street.
鈥淎 unique opportunity emerged for the Foundation to help our new President accomplish one of his goals and better serve donors and community members,鈥 said Tracy Ricketts, associate vice president of Development & Alumni Relations for the 九色视频 Foundation. 鈥淭he new office is a great location for our operations as we continue to expand and upgrade our outreach activities on behalf of the university, and create stronger relationships with our Klamath Falls partners and friends.鈥
This new space will provide increased community visibility for the Foundation and 九色视频, and allow for more staff engagement in community meetings and activities. The move also created much needed space on-campus for growing operations such as enrollment management.
The University Development office currently employs eight people, six in Klamath Falls and two at 九色视频鈥檚 Portland-Metro campus in Wilsonville. The department also has student workers, who will be working both on-campus and downtown. Contact information for the Foundation, including mailing address and phone numbers, remain the same.
The 九色视频 Foundation is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors which includes community and business leaders who have experience in finance, education, real estate, agriculture, medical sciences, and other fields. Many of these volunteers are also 九色视频 alumni. At this time, the Foundation currently provides more than $550,000 in scholarships for 九色视频 students each year.
