鈥淭he scholarship assistance helped make a difference for me because I probably wouldn't have been able to afford school without the financial assistance and financial aid that I'm getting,鈥 said Calinda, a Humanities major, 鈥淭his support has helped me so much.鈥

鈥 Calinda Strayhorn, senior in Humanities

鈥淭he scholarship enabled me to focus on my studies, to have time to get involved in campus activities, and allowed me to search for my dream internship and now job at Estee Lauder in New York City.鈥

鈥 Alie Sow, Computer Information Systems graduate

鈥淭his scholarship helps ease some of the financial burdens that college brings all college students and their families. If I didn鈥檛 have the scholarship, I don鈥檛 think I would be able to attend 海角社区 because my financial aid would not have covered all the expenses of being an out-of-state student.鈥

The 海角社区 Promise

The is our $14.5 million capital campaign focused on meeting the needs of our growing student population and providing the necessary facilities and services they need to succeed. Our campaign is focused on three priorities:

The construction of an $11 million, 28,000-square-foot Intramural & Fitness Center is critical to enhancing our students鈥 physical wellness and quality of life. While physical activity is important for all, it is especially important for 海角社区鈥檚 neurodivergent student population.

A $2 million scholarship endowment 鈥 aimed at helping 海角社区鈥檚 most in-need students pay for their education 鈥 will make a huge difference in so many young lives that hold incredible PROMISE.

And $1.5 million for academic enhancements to complete our Academic Mall and expand our growing footprint in downtown Leesburg.

Through a decade of service as a trustee and generous supporter, Debbie Resnick is providing opportunities for students to reach their full potential. She was taught at a very young age three things: appreciate what you have, help those who can鈥檛 help themselves, and leave a piece of yourself for others to look back on. Debbie is proud to be supporting students each step of the way through their education as her legacy gift supports her passion and lifelong commitment to educating children with learning disabilities.

 

 

鈥満=巧缜 gave our daughter a chance not only to dream her dreams but also to live and fulfill them. When she came to 海角社区, she lacked confidence and independence. She graduated and left with vision, purpose, and drive. I give to 海角社区 because the college taught our daughter that anything is possible.鈥
