Vol State Foundation Announces New Development Officer

Alison Muncy is the new development officer for the Volunteer State Community College Foundation. Muncy was most recently director of Member Relations for the Hendersonville Area Chamber of Commerce. She also served as a board member for Beautiful Hendersonville. In her Vol State position she is charged with fundraising and event planning.

“Development is educating people about what their money will be doing and the impact it will have on people’s lives,” Muncy said. “People may be under the impression that community college is free these days, but that isn’t necessarily the case. Books and materials are expensive, and our scholarships can help cover those costs. And even with the great new statewide scholarship programs, there are still some people who might not qualify. We’re here to help them, as well.”

Muncy holds a Master of Science in Public Health degree from Meharry Medical College and a Bachelor of Business Administration, Marketing degree from Middle Tennessee State University. She also has an associate of applied science degree from Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio. She is a Leadership Sumner graduate and former member of the Board of Directors.
