Your support made Rise Up a success
Thank
you so much to all who attended our 4th annual Rise Up luncheon
last week! It was a spectacular event and we are happy to report that we raised
more funds than any previous event for the basic needs of CCC students!
Your donations will make it possible for countless students to stay enrolled and achieve their educational goals, ultimately uplifting them, their families, and our shared community. As our powerful student speaker, Kaytlen Thomas, exemplifies, your support has the power to change not just one student, but entire families.
"If I wasn't connected to the Foundation, I don't think I would have finished school. It took so much off my shoulders because, at that point, I had been through so much. Just being able to have those extra funds, I didn't have to worry, I could focus on my schooling, and I advanced. I had gotten more 4.0's than I'd ever gotten."
- Kendall Banks, 2025 CCC Graduate
