Your gift to the RCC Foundation, when joined with the gifts of others, becomes the vehicle to provide much-needed services over and above those afforded by the College's budget.
Support Richland!
You can make a difference! Through your contributions and grants the Foundation can enhance Richland Community College by funding special projects, building improvements and providing endowments.
For Community Members
Richland is your community college. Your investment in quality educational opportunities elevates the quality of life in our area for all.
Your tax deductible gift enables the College to be even more responsive to evolving community needs to educate, train, and retrain our diverse population for future success.
For Former Students and Alumni
Ultimately, your success is our success. Why not contribute $1.00 for each year passed since you left RCC? Or "buy a book" --- your gift of $100 will provide a book for a student in need.
For Richland Retirees, Current Faculty and Staff
Your annual gift to the RCC Foundation strengthens the terrific partnership of your personal efforts and Richland's mission: People helping people build a better community.
For Everyone
Whatever your affiliation with Richland Community College, we hope it has proven to be beneficial in developing your own personal plan. We invite you to maintain that valuable connection by developing a giving plan to support the work of the RCC Foundation.
We encourage you to consider the following ...
The RCC Scholarship Fund -- The General Scholarship Fund provides assistance to students for tuition and books. The Endowed Scholarship Fund reflects gifts of $10,000 or more, and perpetual scholarships awarded reflect the name of the donor or honoree. Currently over 250 students a year receive scholarships from Richland's Foundation.
The Capital Fund - Richland continues to grow to meet the rising number of students on our campus. The flexible Capital Fund can accept both restricted and unrestricted gifts for special capital needs such as investments in technology in the classroom, or upcoming construction projects on our campus.
