A bold, innovative and focused approach
to supporting student success
Join the Maricopa Community Colleges Foundation, together with all ten Maricopa Community Colleges as we embark on a new campaign to raise $20million. Together, we will ensure that crucial student and program fundraising priorities are met.
“EmpowerED allows us to focus on building upon the best of our District’s and students’ strengths, preparing them to be accomplished contributors to our community—answering the call of local business and industries for a qualified, future-ready workforce. Together, through education, we will work to eliminate the barriers to happier, healthier, flourishing lives while building a thriving economy for the communities we serve.”
