Your Support Makes a Difference

The Cochise College Foundation helps donors support the success of Cochise College students by accepting charitable contributions for a wide variety of programs and activities. Scholarships, academic and athletic program support, and facilities development are all part of the foundation's mission to promote student success. By supporting Cochise College, the Foundation endeavors to increase the college's accessibility to our diverse and changing communities.

The Foundation was incorporated in 1967 and is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Our volunteer board of directors, representing communities across the district, meets regularly to assure stewardship of funds, oversee activities, review donations, approve financial reports, and develop fundraising strategies.

The Foundation offers a variety of giving opportunities, while also providing a wide range of scholarship assistance to students and program assistance to Cochise College departments. During the 2008-09 academic year, the Foundation awarded more than $500,000 in scholarships, including $176,000 in designated scholarships provided by community organizations. Many donors have established endowments, with interest directed toward scholarships and program support at Cochise College.
