Support PCC Student Scholarships
At Portland Community College, every gift creates opportunity. A gift today will help students like Kari, who returned to PCC nearly two decades after she first enrolled.
Kari began at PCC in 2003, hoping to study accounting while managing cystic fibrosis. She balanced classes with her health until worsening symptoms forced her to leave school and quietly set her dream aside.
Her condition eventually became so severe that she entered hospice care, preparing for the worst. But then, everything changed; a new medication was released. Her health improved, and the dream she’d put aside suddenly felt possible again. In 2024, Kari returned to PCC, determined to finish what she started. A scholarship helped her focus on her studies without sacrificing her health.
“This scholarship helped me focus on school, not on choosing between tuition and a medical bill. It changed everything.”
Your support helps students of all ages and backgrounds overcome barriers, complete their education, and improve their lives. And right now, your gift can go twice as far thanks to a $6,500 matching gift, doubling your impact for students.
Give today and help give more students like Kari a chance.
