Speaker Series - In Partnership with George Mason University: Partnering with Mason, Where do I Start?

Description

Partnering with Mason, Where Do I Start?

We understand that navigating a large public research university can be confusing, and it is often difficult to figure out where to start. A company may want to start an endowed scholarship, contribute corporate philanthropic dollars to the College of Visual Performing Arts, or put their name on a building. How do they know who to talk to? What if they just want to “get to know” Mason?

Presented By: Mercedes Price, Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations,George Mason University.
