Since its beginning the mission of the Southeast Community College Educational Foundation has been to support the vitality and growth of SCC to benefit students, staff and the communities the College serves through the development and wise use of financial resources.

The student scholarship program has always been the primary objective guiding the Foundation’s many activities. Initiated in 1978, the scholarship program provided a total of $1,000 for each of SCC’s three campuses that year. Donor generosity, sound planning and wise investments have fostered tremendous growth from those humble beginnings. Cumulative Scholarship and Awards between 1978 and 2008 exceed 4.7 million dollars.

Do you as a donor make a difference when you contribute to the SCC Educational Foundation? You bet you do! The SCC Foundation donors, many of whom are SCC alumni, have made generous contributions to the scholarship programs for our students.  Without your help, many students many would not have been able to realize their dreams of a college education. The Foundation must seek and obtain financial support from many sources in order to remain flexible and innovative, but nothing will ever replace loyal alumni who unselfishly help to educate a new generation of SCC students through their contributions to the Foundation.

SCC’s mission is to provide opportunities for growth and development to all students, no matter what their educational goals. The SCC Foundation mission is to offer the financial support necessary to help students who want to reach those goals. SCC alumni contributions, no matter how modest, are essential to the growth and vitality of the Educational Foundation and College, and they make all the difference to many deserving students.

Thanks so much for your support for the SCC Educational Foundation.
