<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:black">And so far only 1 program has provided funding – initially it was $10k, but in following years it has been reduced to $7k. (I’m not sure what the history is on that).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

associated. It is also good to band together with student support as there are many support structures needing additional funding with these new programs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

at Tacoma CC starting next week and would love to have some background on the current discussion or any resources that you have for a foundation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
