The Foundation

Paving the Way. Pictured: Architect's rendition of the exterior of Foundation Hall. Alexandria Technical & Community College Foundation (ATCCF) was established in 1971 as the fundraising arm of the college. Over the years, thousands of students have benefited from ATCCF scholarships as well as from in-kind donations of equipment.

For many student, getting a scholarship can make the difference as to whether or not they can attend ATCC. Many of our programs have higher than average "per student" cost than a traditional four-year college as a result of the expensive technical equipment needed for training.

This work is critical as the college prepares the workforce of tomorrow. This workforce needs to be trained on state-of-the-art equipment; this workforce needs to focus on learning and not how they can afford to learn. That is why we are here to help.

Thanks to the generous support of donors, the Foundation helps students realize their dream of a post-secondary education.
