Giving

There are a variety of ways to support Brunswick Community College (BCC) by giving through the BCC Foundation.

Did you know that the BCC Foundation received 279 scholarship applications this year. From those applications, we were able to award 123 scholarships, totaling $143,430.84.

Here’s how you can help:

• A $100.00 minimum donation allows you the opportunity to join the Men or Women in Philanthropy & Leadership. This program provides networking and mentorship opportunities for the members and scholarships for BCC students.
• A minimum donation of $240.00 provides annual membership to the Fin’s Fan Club, which supports BCC’s student athlete scholarship programs.
• A $300.00 donation provides a Continuing Education / Workforce Development scholarship, giving a student the ability to learn a trade so he/she can join the workforce.
• A $500.00 annual gift sponsors program participation for a Student Ambassador, who is an outstanding BCC student and the “face” of the College in the community.
• A $500.00 annual donation supports students who find themselves needing an emergency scholarship in order to finish their classes.
• A $1,000.00 annual donation will provide food and toiletries for the BCC Food Pantry to support students who are in need of a meal or supplies. Studies show that hunger negatively impacts school performance.
• $2,000.00 annually provides much needed supplies to the Brunswick Interagency Program, including program support and Green House projects.
• $2,500.00 annually provides one (1) scholarship (tuition & fees) to a deserving BCC student pursuing an Associate degree.
• A $5,000.00 donation provides two (2) scholarships to deserving students pursuing Associate Degrees.
