Form 990, Part I, Line 1 Case for Support Bexar County and the surrounding areas can count on the Alamo Colleges. For decades, the Colleges have met the evolving needs of our students and our communities. The 5 colleges - St. Philips est. 1898, San Antonio 1925, Palo Alto 1985, Northwest Vista 1995 and Northeast Lakeview 2007 - offer associate degrees in academic programs, certificates and licensures in occupational programs that prepare students for jobs, and courses that transfer to four-year colleges and universities and lead to bachelors degrees. Today, the Alamo Colleges Foundation is focused on building on the Colleges strengths to make students and the Colleges better prepared for the future and a knowledge-driven workplace. Form 990, Part I, Line 1 This is a time of profound challenge and opportunity. Our challenges reach the very heart of our community. For Alamo Colleges students in FY 2012, household income averaged about 30,000. Approximately 50 of Alamo Colleges students qualified to receive federal financial assistance through Pell Grants, compared to only 35 in the Texas Community College System who received such aid. Of the adult population in San Antonio age 25 and over, 42 lack a bachelors degree, associate degree or even some college. Regional employers are experiencing shortages in qualified workers for new high-tech fields. They consistently cite education attainment and technical skills as key workforce necessities. All state agencies are facing unprecedented fiscal cuts. Alamo Colleges is effectively responding to industry needs and to the new fiscal reality by strategically improving performance, reducing per-student costs and increasing philanthropy to help students with scholarship dollars that can cover tuition and related educational expenses. Form 990, Part I, Line 1 The Alamo Colleges serve over 90,000 credit and non-credit students per semester, more than all of the other higher education institutions in Bexar County combined. Based on these numbers, the Alamo Colleges has a tremendous role in the growth and future of the San Antonio region. The importance of private support has grown more essential if we are to continue as the number one educational services provider in the region. To accomplish the goal of providing the education that is necessary for the success of our citizens and our communities, the following must be achieved 1 increase access to education by funding annual and endowed scholarships, 2 enhance the academic experience and workforce skills training, and 3 engage our community in building partnerships and capacity for service and learning.
