Program Support

The RCC Foundation provides a variety of program support funds to bridge the gap between the needs of the College and the State operating budget. Endowed funds exist with the RCC Foundation to benefit Associate Degree Nursing, Photography Technology, Interior Design, and Machining Technology. Earnings from these endowed funds may be used in these programs as needed. The principal balance remains in the fund. In 2010-2011, $71,172 was provided to the College to support specific programs. In addition, the Foundation received a grant from Duke Energy that provided $248,000 for a new welding center at RCC’s Archdale Center. The Foundation also provided $55,000 to RCC for the implementation of the new Medical Assisting program for 2011-2012.

Contributions of any amount are accepted to the Foundation's existing program support funds. Donors may also wish to establish a new fund. Endowed funds require a minimum contribution of $10,000 that may be pledged over a five-year period. Designated funds have no minimum requirement.
