Story

I don't take for granted the privilege of obtaining a college education and our ability to provide our boys with the choice to attend their dream college. Six months ago, I started working for the Maricopa Community Colleges Foundation. Our mission is to make post secondary education accessible and affordable for anyone with the desire to work hard and enter the workforce. Sadly, there are so many students faced with family circumstances or financial barriers that deter them from pursuing their passion. Compounded by the pandemic, this Spring, we are experiencing a significant increase in requests from students for scholarships and emergency funds to cover basic needs such as food and transportation.

April is Community College month and I am asking for your help to support students in need achieve their educational dreams and transform their lives. No gift is too small! THANK YOU for your generosity. 

With gratitude, Nilam
