The MPC Foundation provides opportunities for students in Monterey County to attend college, and helps to ensure their experience at MPC is the best it can be. We accomplish this by providing financial support to students, and by investing resources to complement the college’s programs, faculty and staff, and facilities.
Scholarships, internships, textbooks, emergency assistance, and the Evans College Incentive Program.
Faculty & Staff Advancement Awards that support innovation and creativity, and support for a number of specific programs and departments.
Vision
Universal Access to Extraordinary Higher Education.
Mission
We create opportunities for students and enhance the learning environment at MPC by fundraising and friendraising.
History
In 1994, a small group of dedicated community members created a tax-exempt non-profit organization in order to provide supplemental funding to Monterey Peninsula College. Since then, the Monterey Peninsula College (MPC) Foundation has raised approximately $16 million in support of MPC and its students. As the strategic fundraising arm of the college, the Foundation is uniquely positioned to support innovation and excellence at the college while helping students in making their dreams become a reality.
