Follow on Google News | Ventura College Foundation’s Marketplace is So Much More than GoodsWeekly event helps fund college programs and is a site for community services
By: Mayerson Marketing & PR The Ventura County Health Department sets up mobile clinics each quarter, and through the end of the year they will have a manned booth every Saturday to explain Covered California, a statewide program where residents can choose affordable, quality health insurance coverage through the Affordable Care Act. This month, the Marketplace was the site of the annual Bi-National Health Week’s health fair, a partnership between the U.S. and Mexican governments. “The Marketplace has evolved into a great resource for both our vendors and customers,” said Norbert Tan, executive director of the Ventura College Foundation. “It’s a place where we are contributing to the economy, workforce development, community engagement, neighborhood vitality, and, of course, to students and the college.” Revenue from the space rentals at the Marketplace, located at Telegraph and Day roads, helps the Ventura College Foundation fund many programs including the Textbook Lending Library and the Ventura College Promise. Since 1985, the Marketplace has raised more than $10 million in program support. For more information about reserving a space at the Marketplace, contact the Foundation at (805) 289-6461 or visit www.venturacollege.edu. Established in 1983, the Ventura College Foundation provides financial support to the students and the programs of Ventura College to facilitate student success and grow the impact and legacy of Ventura College as a vital community asset. The Foundation also hosts the Ventura College Foundation Marketplace, an outdoor shopping experience held 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. every weekend on the Ventura College campus east parking lot at the corner of Telegraph and Day roads. For more information, contact the Foundation at (805) 289-6461 or visit www.venturacollege.edu. End
