$21,852 in designated scholarships
$10,260 in Continuing Education scholarships awarded to students for occupational training

The Randolph Community College Foundation provides Changing Lives Scholarships to students who have financial need but do not qualify for traditional financial aid. There are many reasons students find themselves in this situation, but mostly it is because their family’s income is a little too high to qualify for a Pell grant yet not high enough to realistically afford all the costs associated with college. These students would be unable to obtain a college education without scholarship assistance.
You can help by making a contribution to the Changing Lives Scholarship fund at RCC. Your gift will help a student struggling to pay the basic costs of attending college, like tuition, fees, and books. When you make a contribution, you are creating opportunities and changing lives!
Follow the link below to make an online gift to the Changing Lives Scholarship fund at RCC. If you prefer, you may mail your check to RCC Foundation, 629 Industrial Park Ave., Asheboro, NC 27205. Please note “Changing Lives Scholarships” on your check.

You can create a lasting legacy for RCC students by establishing a planned gift to the RCC Foundation.

Individuals who establish a planned gift to the RCC Foundation become members of our Legacy Society.
Your planned gift may be designated for a scholarship, support for a specific program, or may be applied to the Foundation's Unrestricted Fund. It is important that you coordinate your planned gift with RCC Foundation staff to ensure your wishes may be fulfilled.

The purpose of the Robert Shackleford Emergency Fund is to assist students who are in danger of dropping out of school due to unexpected financial situations. Students must be in good standing and requests are carefully vetted to ensure prudent use of these funds. Students have been assisted with various emergency needs including not only tuition and books, but also utility bills, car repairs, and gas to get to and from school. Contributions of any amount are accepted for the Robert Shackleford Emergency Fund.
The RCC Foundation provides a variety of program support funds to bridge the gap between the needs of the College and the State operating budget. Endowed funds exist with the RCC Foundation to benefit Associate Degree Nursing, Photography Technology, Interior Design, and Machining Technology. Earnings from these endowed funds may be used in these programs as needed. The principal balance remains in the fund.
Contributions of any amount are accepted to the Foundation's existing program support funds. Donors may also wish to establish a new fund. Endowed funds require a minimum contribution of $10,000 that may be pledged over a five-year period. Designated funds have no minimum requirement. Contact Rebecca Marshall with the RCC Foundation for more information, (336) 633-0295 or rjmarshall@randolph.edu.
