Corporate & Foundation Giving
Strategic philanthropy furthers our mission in meaningful ways, providing flexible funds to address the College’s greatest operational needs; scholarships for talented students who would not otherwise be able to pursue their dreams of higher education and creative professions; resources for public programs and curricular enhancements; and investments in capital expansion.

The impact of your gift to Otis College could be doubled, even tripled.
