[Karson, Kitty J]

Sent on Behalf of Dean Tedesco


Dear Deans,

As part of our ongoing effort to support your colleges, I would like to ask you to distribute this invitation to your faculty and encourage them to attend. This is a wonderful opportunity for them to hear directly from corporate and foundation representatives and interact with our CFR team.

The University of Houston Office of Corporate & Foundation Relations (CFR) invites you to attend their first semiannual CFR Open House on April 15 from 2:00 to 4:30 in the University Center Ballroom West (Room 210).

Learn how the CFR team serves the university community and faculty, and discuss how best to position your project for consideration by corporate and foundation donors. A panel of corporate and foundation representatives will discuss how their organizations work with CFR and the University of Houston. And CFR staff will be on-hand to discuss your projects and advise on the best way to formulate funding proposals.

2:00 - 2:20           Introductions and CFR overview
2:20 - 3:30           Corporate and foundation panel
-        Truman Bell, Headquarters Community Relations Manager, ExxonMobil
-        Christina Cabral, Senior Market Manager, Aio Wireless
-        George Granger, Senior Program Officer-Education, Houston Endowment
-        Richard Torres, Community Affairs Manager, Wells Fargo
3:30 - 4:30           Program funding strategy discussions with CFR staff
