Accomplishments
In fiscal year 2010, revenues exceeded $1 million and our net assets increased by roughly $200,000 to nearly $3.3 million. The MCTC Foundation delivered over $400,000 in scholarships to low-income academically talented students. In addition, we received donations from over 200 alumni. The MCTC Foundation hosted the 20th annual MLK "Celebrate the Dream" tribute in January 2010. In May 2010, the MCTC Foundation held its 2nd Annual Power of GIVING Luncheon. Nearly, 300 people attended and we raised $90,000 for scholarships. We achieved our fundraising goal by raising over $5.5 million for the Power of YOU program. The Power of YOU has now provided nearly 2,000 low-income students the opportunity of two years of of tuition-free college.
Current Goals
Our goal for fiscal year 2011 is to award $350,000 in scholarships and to continue to fundraise for the Power of YOU as well as other programs such as JumpStart to College and our annual MLK event. We are in the planning stages for the college's Retention and Graduation Initiative fundraising.
