Mission

The KVCC Foundation engages supporters to invest in students, faculty, and programs to empower individuals and to build stronger communities. We achieve this goal by raising funds to promote and support all educational programs; to provide state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, and to ensure access through scholarship funds for students.

Students Success

KVCC students come from a variety of backgrounds and face many challenges to reaching their personal, professional, and academic goals. The KVCC Foundation is an essential resource to students, faculty, and programs designed to reduce barriers and enhance student success!

KVCC Foundation Scholars are grateful. In the words of a recent scholarship recipient: “I’d just like to say thank you again for your generosity. Every little bit of support you have provided helps ease some of my stress of getting through college. Thanks to the KVCC Foundation Scholarship, I’ll be able to focus on my studies and achieve my dream to become a Physical Therapist Assistant. I hope one day to provide support to others the same way you did for me.”

The Foundation is led by a dedicated Board of Trustees drawn from local and state-wide civic, banking, education, entrepreneurial, construction, agriculture, trades, and technology businesses and organizations.
