A Message from the Foundation President
The Columbia College Foundation’s main objective is to raise financial support that provides resources to expand educational opportunities for Columbia College’s students.
Comprised of a Foundation Board whose members build our work around promoting quality higher education that enriches the academic, economic, and cultural life of our community, its members cultivate support that help the college achieve its goals. Chief among those goals are to help students improve their social and economic mobility, which is why the Foundation, planted a PROMISE within its footprint, raising funds to guarantee that ANY student, graduating from a high school within the footprint of Columbia College, could attend Columbia College tuition free. That commitment is complimented by over 190 donor advised Foundation scholarships awarded annually to Columbia College students. Furthermore, the Foundation Board seeks to remove all barriers to student success by collaborating with the College on a variety of support programs including student housing, meals, textbooks, or counseling support.
Our success is propelled by a community of active and generous donors who believe in the power of education to transform and enrich lives, and who wish to invest in helping students to complete their academic desired goals right here at Columbia College. We welcome your support in helping our students achieve success. Contact us at the Foundation Office to learn more.
