Giving Tuesday 2023 Support Suffolk Community College Foundation

This Giving Tuesday we encourage support for the Education Without Limits Campaign. In October Suffolk County Community College donors, students, alumni, faculty, staff and elected officials – nearly 200 in all attended a luncheon featured online.

Campaign priority areas include:

  • Scholarships: we want to increase the number of scholarship opportunities
  • Hardship funds: to support students faced with a sudden emergency or unforeseen circumstance that results in an immediate financial need.
  • Naming opportunities: that allow donors to recognize people and/or organizations with meaningful ties to the College and
  • Academic Program Enhancements: to provide students with enriched experiences customized to reflect the interests of the donor.

The Suffolk Community College Foundation’s mission is to support student access to quality education and vocational skills training by providing scholarships, emergency loans and funding for program development.

The Foundation also engages alumni to maintain their connection to the college,  to support foundation events, philanthropy, student mentorship and internship opportunities.

Get family, friends and neighbors involved.
