Over the past number of years, the higher education fundraising landscape has shifted dramatically, and financial volatility has continued to persist. The Montgomery County Community College (MCCC) Board of Trustees, along with College leadership, recognized this and saw a need to evolve its fundraising capabilities with a new philanthropic arm that fully aligned with the mission and strategic priorities of Montgomery County Community College. Especially in this time of heightened financial volatility, the Board determined that a new philanthropic arm was needed to more effectively:
- Support students financially.
- Support academic programs, faculty development and campus initiatives that enhance the quality and accessibility of a MCCC education.
- Promote community awareness, engagement and partnerships that further the mission and values of the College.
- Facilitate capital projects and improvements that benefit the College and its students.
- Encourage philanthropic giving and long-term financial sustainability through endowments and planned-giving programs.
In authorizing the establishment of the Montgomery County Community College (PA) Legacy Fund, the College’s Board of Trustees is ensuring the continued success of the College, its employees, and, most importantly, its students.
Montgomery County Community College (PA) Legacy Fund is a Pennsylvania nonprofit corporation that is eligible to receive tax-deductible charitable contributions. (IRS Code Section 501(c)(3) public charity EIN: 39-3245315). Contributions to MCCC (PA) Legacy Fund are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
