· Develop collaborative programs and projects of ICUF members and to seek funding for those activities;
· Identify and develop funding for general purposes of the member institutions, scholarships, and collaborative programs;
· Carry out funding activities through which individuals, corporations, corporate foundations, trusts, and other foundations can support the collaborative scholarships and programs of member colleges;
· Promote the interests of independent higher education in Florida by enhancing a productive partnership between the member institutions and the private sector; and
