Corporate Relations

Westmont College’s Office of Foundation and Corporate Relations values the partnerships it enjoys with businesses and corporations who serve the Santa Barbara community and beyond. Understanding potential for support and growth, Westmont seeks to foster relationships with corporations that will further each other’s missions.

Corporations support Westmont in a number of ways: they provide scholarships to Westmont students and athletes, donate gifts in kind to projects such as Potter’s Clay and Spring Break in the City, match their employee’s gifts to Westmont, and sponsor various Westmont events and programs on and off campus.

But adding value to who we are, what we do, and where we want to go is only one half of the corporate equation. The other is providing practical ways of giving back to our community partners and advancing their corporate identity and activities that benefit our community.
