ANNUAL GIVING & PRESIDENT’S SOCIETY

The Annual Campaign and President’s Society provide funding for current needs.  All money raised through these initiatives is used during the same year it is received.  Yearly contributions to the Carroll Community College Foundation help sustain the vitality of Carroll Community College and the community it serves.  Gifts to this Campaign have an impact on every student’s educational experience and by extension our community.  Through gifts at all giving levels, donors express their confidence in the mission and vision of Carroll Community College.

The influence of your gift to Carroll Community College is seen in more than dollars.  Gifts become textbooks for students, innovative technology for teaching, professional development for faculty and an opportunity for students to participate in learning activities outside of the classroom.  It helps prepare our students to meet the critical workforce needs of our county today and in the years ahead, making the future brighter for themselves and their families.

Every donation contributes to making higher education achievable for students of all ages. 

President’s Society is a leadership annual giving group for Carroll Community College.  Membership is achieved with a minimum gift of $1,000 to the Foundation.
