…the student success services that exist here, from tutoring, guidance, support, and encouragement help students to reach their goals whenever they have any kind of struggles.

236 students received emergency assistance funds to keep from dropping out due to unexpected crises. $116,129 in emergency assistance have been awarded, and 73% of students who received emergency assistance were able to stay enrolled or graduate.
…thanks to HACCs emergency assistance fund i was able to continue through this semester. I had a car and home emergency that would have prevented me from affording travel to class as well as anything class had required. Because of the generosity of this fund, and HACC as a whole, I intend to donate back once I am successfully established in my new career!
~ Alison, HACC emergency assistance recipient
199 new, innovative projects were funded to keep HACC on the cutting edge of education, such as the English as a Second Language (ESL) Fund for Excellence.
As international student, I choose HACC because it will help me improve my English which is my second language.
~Shaina, HACC student
5,562 scholarships were awarded to help students pursue their education. Over $4.4 million in scholarships have been awarded.
Being awarded the Scholarship Award means so much to me because it lightens the financial burden and allows me to focus on my classes. Your generosity is helping more than just me, it is also helping my two sons whom I'm trying to make a better life for. I promise to not let your generosity go to waste.
