In the broadest sense, the purpose of the Williamsburg Technical College Foundation is to create an awareness within the private sector of the financial needs of the College that are not met by local, state, or federal support and to implement a plan to generate financial support through private development. To fulfill these purposes, the Office of Development and Public Relations seeks methods for obtaining gift support from alumni, friends, faculty, staff, businesses, corporations, organizations, and private foundations for both annual and capital purposes.

To maximize success, avoid duplication of efforts, and assure adherence to WTCF and WTC priorities and policies, all gift solicitation, proposals for gift solicitation, or fundraising events to be conducted by anyone (including faculty, staff, students, alumni, friends, etc.) for the benefit of the College or any part of the College shall require the review by the Director of Development and Public Relations and final approval of the administrative council. Approval of the WTC Foundation is required prior to the acceptance of certain gifts.
