I am passionate about helping students, and giving to the 在线电子游戏网赌 Foundation is the perfect way for me to support deserving students achieve their dream of a college education. I know that the 在线电子游戏网赌 Foundation staff works hard to ensure that my donation dollars are handled responsibly and that it is used to transform lives. I am also glad to know that some of my dollars go to providing outstanding professional development opportunities to faculty and staff. In a time where funding is scarce, it is comforting to know that the 在线电子游戏网赌 Foundation is there to ensure continued excellence in education and learning. I am truly proud of the 在线电子游戏网赌 Foundation's hard work and unwavering support of our students, faculty, staff, and community.

You know what you're supporting.

Your donations go directly to fund the college, its programs, and its students. Our primary focus is to make college affordable for our students, but the Foundation also helps to ensure that technology and faculty/staff training needs are met.

Your support closes a financial gap.

State allocations do not cover all the needs of the college's programs and services. Your donation helps to fill the financial gap when state dollars are not enough. In 2015 - 2016, the Foundation provided more than $350,000 to help cover needs of the students, faculty, and academic programs.

Your contribution will have a lasting impact.

Leave a legacy by funding an endowment. Your gift will keep giving by providing scholarships to students for years to come. In 2015 - 2016, scholarships brightened the future for 218 在线电子游戏网赌 students with more than $199,000 awarded to these deserving individuals.

This scholarship provided me the opportunity to stay in school. I am even more inspired to reach my goals. I now know that I will be able to complete my Associate in Arts Degree and transfer to a four-year college because of this encouragement and financial support.

You're investing in your community.

A majority of our students live and work in Lee, Harnett, and Chatham counties. They raise their families here. They join civic organizations. And they contribute to an ever-growing and vibrant community.

You're helping the local economy.

The college helps to provide a well-trained workforce that enables our community to thrive. How do we know? Employers tell us that 在线电子游戏网赌 students are equipped with the right skills.

The Foundation is a good steward of your dollars.

100% of the donations received by the Foundation go directly to support the students, faculty, and staff of 在线电子游戏网赌. With no overhead costs, we are able to serve more students and, because of your generosity, impact their lives and futures.

Central Carolina Community College had a meaningful impact on Gary's life, particularly in the last few years after he became physically disabled. For one thing, the college programs allowed him to pursue his interest in renewable energy as a student. Additionally, the college allowed him to achieve a lifelong goal. He always wanted to teach, and had received a college degree in math as a young adult with that purpose in mind. Years of working to raise a family caused him to continue to postpone that dream. While a student, he began tutoring math in the Academic Assistance Center and found his life's calling. He loved teaching math, and the students he helped inspired him greatly. Our sons and I decided it would be a fitting tribute to his legacy to establish a scholarship which bears his name for the purpose of helping others achieve their dreams through education. I think he would be pleased.
