Giving Tuesday Exceeds Goal
#GivingTuesday was a great success for Fresno City College because of the tremendous generosity of supporters who believe in helping students. FCC exceeded its goal of raising $40,000. By the end of the day, almost $45,000 was raised. ($44,484 to be exact.)
The funds will be divided between the Ram Pantry, which helps provide food to hungry students, and a student emergency fund.
Fresno City College is grateful to all those who contributed to the #GivingTuesday effort including those who provided matching funds:
- Gina Cuttone, State Center Community College Foundation Board President and her husband Shawn Patty who matched $2,500
- Chris Morse, SCCCF Board Treasurer and his wife Michelle who matched $5,000
- Integrated Prescription Management (IPM) who matched $5,000
Other generous contributions include a $16,982 grant from Kaiser Permanente and $5,000 from River Park Properties.
The #GivingTuesday funds that were raised on December 1 are crucial to help Fresno City College students who have food insecurities or who have been affected by a crisis that can create hardship in their educational efforts to transform their future such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic or the Creek Fire.
