The Berkshire Community College Foundation is a non-profit corporation established to encourage and receive gifts in support of the mission of the college. Gifts from alumni, students, corporations, friends, and staff are used to further the college's commitment to academic excellence and community service. Under the auspices of the BCC Foundation, the office of Development and Alumni Relations works to engage alumni with the college through the BCC News and regional social events.
The Foundation provides scholarships, grants and awards to deserving students to assist them in pursuit of their academic goals. It also supports initiatives in "value-added" activities such as conferences and hands-on experiences to expand student and faculty learning, emerging technologies, and campus restoration. In addition, the Foundation owns and operates the building in Great Barrington that provides a permanent site for the college's South County Center.
The Foundation is governed by a board of volunteers made up of members from various communities throughout Berkshire County and surrounding areas. Anyone wishing to make a donation to the Foundation, should log on to the college's website or contact the Development Office (ext. 2185).
The Berkshire Community College Foundation has made a tremendous impact on the lives of students. Please see our many opportunities for giving.
