Pasadena City College Foundation

Pasadena City College Foundation We help ensure the growth and development of PCC by providing support that bridges the gap between the college's needs and state-funded resources.

The Pasadena City College Foundation was incorporated in 1979 as a non-profit, charitable, public-benefit corporation. Established by a group of individuals from the college and community, and partially funded by a grant from the Ahmanson Foundation, the PCC Foundation was formed to raise private funds to maintain a high level of excellence at a time of declining public funding. Today the Foundati

on is governed by a 33 person Board of Directors who are civic and business leaders from the community, elected for three-year terms. Funds raised by the Foundation include donations from individuals, corporations, and local foundations. The Foundation Board is also the governing agency of the Alumni Association. Some of the areas that benefit from the funds raised are major capital projects, equipment to ensure technological excellence, programs which provide special services to the students and the community, faculty grants, and student scholarships. Since 2008, the Pasadena City College Foundation has awarded more than 4,200 scholarships totaling nearly $1.9 million to deserving students, and our hope is to continue to bring this kind of help to our community for many years to come.

PCC alum and recipient of the Wayne Loel Scholarship in Geology, BP Blakley, is starting a PhD program in Earth and Planetary Sciences at Johns Hopkins University this Fall.

"I'm a nontraditional student and came to PCC with an undergrad degree in Fine Arts," BP says. "My goal at PCC was to get all the math and science coursework done that I didn't do in my undergrad, as well as get some research experience so I could apply to graduate programs in planetary science. I happily reached that goal!"
