The Lincoln Land Community College Foundation applauds your efforts in helping our students fulfill their educational goals!
Gifts to the annual staff and faculty LEAGUE campaign are still being received. To date, the Foundation has received $55,488 in pledges from 175 staff and faculty members! This money benefits students like Peggy, who after an 18-year hiatus, hesitantly returned to college, but with clear goals in mind including being the first in her family to receive a degree and to open her own catering business someday. Thanks to your generous donations, Peggy was the recipient of the Lincoln Land Foundation First Generation Student Scholarship, which has helped her pay tuition.
