Glendale Community College

You Can Make an Impact on a Student’s Life
With your help, Glendale Community College (GCC) can provide  students with basic needs and scholarship funds so they can get the education they need to succeed in the workforce. Sadly, many students do not have access to basic needs such as food and shelter; many more struggle to pay tuition. GCC has numerous programs that assist ‘in-need’ students, however, we need your support in funding these programs.

Dara Lawson, GCC Nursing Student

“As a single mother of three young children, attending nursing school and paying for childcare was challenging. This scholarship made my dream of becoming a nurse possible by providing me with the means to graduate and relieved many financial hardships I was facing. Glendale Community College has empowered me as a student, mother, veteran,  and as a future nurse.”
