HIBBING COLLEGE FOUNDATION

The Hibbing Community College Foundation is a charitable, non-profit corporation dedicated to raising funds for Hibbing Community College. The Foundation partners with donors to support and strengthen the College’s role in serving the educational needs of the community.

Many lives are touched by the efforts of the Hibbing Community College Foundation board members – all of whom are volunteers. The spirit and generosity of our many donors makes it possible for the Foundation to continually serve the students who are working hard as they travel their pathways to the future.

With a challenging economy upon us, unemployment on the rise and uncertainty in the world, the role of Hibbing Community College in our community is more important than ever. Affordable, accessible and quality education is vital to our community and essential to countless individuals.

Each year, with the help of generous donors, the Hibbing Community College Foundation awards more than $30,000 in scholarships to deserving students – offering the hope of a brighter future through education that may otherwise be unattainable.
