Supporting SPC Through Grant-Funded Projects
The Grants Development department at St. Petersburg College supports the college's mission by seeking, obtaining, and managing external funding obtained through grants and collaborative partnerships.
Department Overview
This department supports the college in securing and implementing grants from government and private sources that assist in achieving SPC’s strategic objectives. With extensive and highly touted experience in managing a multitude of grant-funded programs, including state and federal grants, SPC’s Grants Development department manages an average of $20 million in grants and gifts annually.
