About the Student Success Fund

The Foundation provides $50,000 annually to assist students who are most at risk for abandoning their education due to financial hardship. Student Success funds not only help students in need with emergency funding, but also help the college maintain quality instruction because the funds stay on campus. The average student award is less than $500.

These one-time grants mean the difference between success and failure for students who are on their way to graduation.

The Student Success Fund helps students with:

• Tuition and fees not covered by scholarships, financial aid or grants.
• Emergency childcare expenses.
• Emergency transportation.
• Other unforeseen emergency expenses barring students from degree completion.
