Those who value education and the special resources of a local community college support the Palomar College Foundation. Local residents, parents of our students, students themselves, alumni, friends, corporations, and small businesses are among our contributors.

Palomar College is an increasingly important community educational center; yet public tax support has not kept pace with escalating demands on its resources and services. And like California’s universities, community colleges need charitable gifts to support educational programs and capital improvements. Philanthropy can mean the difference between ordinary and extraordinary programs and services for students’ success.

The Foundation Board of Directors is compromised of community leaders who generously donate their time, talents and efforts to Palomar College. The Directors meet regularly to seek new sources of funding, to discuss college needs, to review proposals and requests, and to provide stewardship of the funds entrusted to their care.
