Your Support Makes a Difference
When you support Mount Wachusett Community College, you are making a difference not only in the life of a student but in the community as a whole. Our graduates are your co-workers, your employees, your nurses and dental hygienists, your mechanics, veterinary technicians, teachers, firefighters, and police officers. MWCC and our graduates are vital to the success of our region, and financial aid and state funding is not enough. Every gift, even a small amount, can have a life-changing impact on a student and the future of MWCC.
State funding only comprises approximately 50% of the College’s operating budget, as such we rely on the support of our alumni and friends to meet the needs of the community. Donations to the MWCC Foundation help us to:
- Upgrade campus learning environments to meet modern technologies and requirements.
- Grant scholarships to help students pay for courses, books, and other items needed for their degree programs, such as laptops and software or tools and tool chests for automotive students.
- Support student basic needs and the Emergency Student Loan fund.
A Very Fulfilling Feeling
“I can say it is a very fulfilling feeling knowing you have helped to educate a new generation and what better way to honor someone than to leave a lasting legacy in a loved one’s name.”
– Barbara Carpenter, Babineau- Johnson Scholarship Funds
