The Student Success Fund seeks donations to raise scholarships

Even while choosing lower-cost community colleges, and receiving assistance from our existing scholarship program, many of our students still find pursuing their education financially difficult

With the generous support of our donors, the Student Success Fund seeks to raise scholarship amounts to $3,000, enabling our students to pursue their dreams with less financial strain for them and their families
