Emergency Aid for Students
As you may know, over the past several months our students have faced a number of challenges that have impacted their education. Most recently, we have students who have been affected by the Creek Fire, with many of them forced to evacuate and seek shelter elsewhere and tragically, some lost their homes and everything they own. All the while, having to continue their education virtually due to COVID-19. But even in the midst of these incredibly trying times, the District remains committed to lifting the community to greater heights. Our incredible faculty and staff are working hard to deliver their dynamic instruction and supportive services to meet our students where they are, and provide them with the necessary support to attain a college degree or certificate.
Many in our community have asked how they can assist in our efforts. A Student Emergency Fund has been created in response to student financial hardships incurred. A gift to the Student Emergency Fund helps meet immediate and essential expenses allowing students to focus on their academic coursework.
I invite you to join with us to help our students continue to achieve their higher educational goals by making a gift today to the Student Emergency Fund.
As we work in new ways to advance our mission and provide our students with the education they deserve, I know our campus communities will continue to shine brightly as leaders. And I am certain that, in the days to come, we will once again experience the power of the generosity of our extraordinary community.
I wish you and your loved ones continued health and safety. I look forward to sharing the benefits of your commitment to our students.
Kind regards,
Rico Guerrero
Executive Director
State Center Community College Foundation
