South Central College N. Mankato Campus Foundation

Your contribution is key to our success! By providing students with the support they need to succeed and keeping our programs current, we can ensure that our area's workforce will continue to grow and thrive.

Lifesaver Grants: Over the past few years, we have provided more than $30,00 in emergency grants to students to assist with unforeseen expenses that might otherwise derail their plans. These grants of up to $1,000 help students with basic-needs expenses such as utilities, rent, medical bills, and transportation. Students who received this funding are far more likely to remain in school and complete their degrees.

Scholarships: Thanks to the overwhelming support of our community, we awarded more than $300,000 in scholarships to 300 deserving students this fall. 

Welding Lab Updates: SCC North Mankato Campus Foundation is collaborating with SCC to update and expand our welding lab facilities, benefitting program areas such as Machine Tool Technology, Agribusiness, HVAC/R, Automotive Service, Auto Body, and more. Combining the efforts of the college and the foundation allows us to enhance the upgrades being made to the current facilities and double the number of students who will use them. 

Program Equipment: Our Agribusiness program recently purchased a combine simulator allowing students to gain hands-on experience without the large outlay of funds needed to purchase the machinery. In another example, our Emergency Medical Services program purchased manikins to be used in the simulation of adult and pediatric medical and trauma crisis scenarios, replacing outdated manikins that were in use.

All of these wonderful accomplishments were made possible by the generosity of donors like you! We very much appreciate your support and hope you will consider support SCC! With your generosity, we can enhance the SCC experience and continue to grow our community's skilled workforce.

We would love to hear from you directly as well.  For more information about the SCC Foundation call us at 507-389-7342.
