Support our Students

Fund a scholarship or student program of your choice. These include one-time contributions or recurring gifts.
We offer two types of scholarship funds.
Endowed Funds
These are permanent and make awards in perpetuity through investment earnings. The minimum amount required to establish an endowed scholarship or program fund is $10,000.
Restricted Funds
These funds are invested and usually expended within 3 years or less. The minimum amount required to establish a restricted scholarship fund is $3,000 for internal and $5,000 for external funds.
Include the Maricopa Community Colleges Foundation in your will or estate plan.
Giving a future gift will help provide educational access and opportunity for generations to come. You will also enjoy a tax benefit from this contribution.

The Employee Giving Program is a rewarding opportunity for employees from across the Maricopa Community Colleges District who wish to give back to our students financially.
These contributions may come in the form of scholarships, program support, technologies, emergency funding, and more.
Sign up here to make a charitable tax-deductible gift as a one-time donation or to set up a payroll deduction.
Many companies provide matching gifts for charitable donations. Check with your employer to learn how to increase the impact of your gift.
