On Tuesday, May 5th Capital Community College (CCC) Foundation joins a global generosity movement started in 2012.
Giving Tuesday — a day set aside in December each year to encourage philanthropy and acts of kindness, is happening now in response to the COVID-19 public health and economic crisis hitting every community globally and locally.
For community college students financial and personal burdens are growing during the pandemic. While distance learning continues, new hardships will confront students in the days and weeks ahead.
At Capital Community College donations– no matter the amount – support a mission of educational access and academic success for students who face financial and personal challenges in getting to and graduating from college without debt.
