Since 1979, the ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿ Foundation has raised much-needed funds to help a wide range of students — local and international, first-generation, veterans, career-changers and distance learners — achieve their educational and career goals.
We are a non-profit, charitable, public-benefit corporation made up of caring individuals
from the college and community, and partially funded by a grant from the Ahmanson
Foundation.
Today, we have a 33-person Board of Directors that includes civic and business leaders
from the community oversees our work. Each Board member serves a three-year term.
The funds we raise include donations from individuals, corporations, as well as local
foundations.
Some of the areas that benefit from the funds we raise include major capital projects, technology updates, programs that provide special services to students and the community, and student scholarships.
