The Foundation will work to maximize philanthropic support for the College. We invite all individuals and corporations to support EC3 students by giving to the foundation, establish a legacy gift, and enlist the support of EC3 alumni.
The Foundation supports the mission and vision of the College.
The Foundation can be effective in the lives of our students, thanks to the generosity of alumni, parents, community friends, private foundations, and corporations.

The Flat Tire Story
There is power in your giving. Dr. Chris Gray, Founding President of EC3, tells a story about what a flat tire could mean for one of our students. At EC3, we never want that to be the reason someone stops pursuing the education that will make a better life for themselves and their family.
