The President's Innovation Fund (PIF) is an initiative designed to support creativity and innovation at Skyline College. Faculty, Staff and Administrators are encouraged to “Dream Out Loud” and propose ideas that will support the college’s Mission - Vision - Values.

The primary provider of the funds is the President’s Council, a group of dedicated community members committed to actively supporting Skyline College.

The President’s Council raises financial support for the President's Innovation Fund by hosting the President's Breakfast every spring.

The San Mateo County Community College Foundation, whose mission is to promote student success and program innovation, also provides resources to support the President’s Innovation Fund through the generosity of donors.

The Board of Directors is made up of dedicated community members who champion development efforts and build meaningful relationships between the colleges and the community in order to advance the mission of San Mateo County Community Colleges Foundation. The experienced staff is committed to helping donors reach their philanthropic goals.
