Miller Foundation challenges community colleges to raise more for scholarships
Photos and story by James Hill
The James F. and Marion L. Miller Foundation has challenged all 17 of Oregon’s community colleges to raise more money for student scholarship grants.
For PCC, that between between now and March 31, any contributions to the scholarship fund will help raise an extra $320,000 in matching contributions from the Miller Foundation. To secure the full match, the PCC Foundation must raise $320,000 over what we raised for scholarships last year.
