Foundation Transition With the Hastings College Foundation executive director stepping down at the end of May 2026, this leadership transition creates an opportunity to engage the foundation on fundraising strategy, donor management software, and interim consulting to maintain momentum and continuity.

Alumni Engagement Hastings College already values alumni relations through initiatives like the Outstanding Alumni Coach and multiple events (Beaux Arts, Honors Convocation, Mural Day), signaling readiness for donor engagement platforms, CRM, and volunteer management partnerships to deepen giving and involvement.

Edtech Adoption A comprehensive student tech program (iPad Pro and textbooks) together with WordPress and Google marketing tools indicates openness to integrated edtech platforms, digital content subscriptions, learning analytics, and device management partnerships to enhance the student experience.

Marketing Readiness Active event activity and a tech stack focused on paid search and analytics suggest opportunities to optimize admissions marketing through SEO, marketing automation, site personalization, and conversion rate optimization services.

Arts Partnerships Active engagement in arts and campus events presents potential for sponsorship programs, event management software, and partnerships with local businesses and alumni networks to boost visibility and fundraising.
