Launched as a philanthropic network in 2021, The President’s Council members give to support the strategic vision (Future Forward) of Benjamin Franklin Cummings Institute of Technology and to advance the education of its students. Members of the President’s Council generate key connections to those who currently or will support increased access to tech and trade industry education for untapped talent.
Through a series of annual events and roundtable conversations, The President’s Council offers opportunities for members to periodically share their insights on the college as the college develops and implements plans for future growth that also meet local workforce needs. We are most grateful for their ongoing gifts of support, their counsel, and their industry insights during this exciting time for the college.
