Let us invest in you.


Foundation Impact Awards provide funding for impactful faculty/staff initiatives that create a positive impact on CFCC and our students. This support provides financial resources for projects that are otherwise unfunded by the State or other college budgets.

Applications are evaluated and awarded by a committee of Program Directors, Deans, Foundation Staff, and Board members. Submission of an eligible Impact Award proposal does not guarantee an award, and awards are made on a quarterly basis.
