The VCC Foundation exists to help you in your support for our students. By helping them reach their goals and realize their dreams, we can better our communities. Each donation made to the foundation has an impact. Without the generosity of donors who fund scholarships and bursaries, many students would be unable to complete their post-secondary education. Contributions are helping to provide new learning spaces, and donations of equipment and current technology to enhance student learning. The Foundation seeks to stimulate financial support for the students and programs at VCC, to ensure the prudent management of funds received and to encourage the community's goodwill toward the college. It is a registered non-profit organization with a volunteer board of directors.
