Story

This is my last semester before graduating. Without this money, I don't know how I would have completed my classes. -HCC Student and Emergency Aid Recipient

OUR STUDENTS NEED HELP. HCC students come from the lowest-income households compared to students from any college in the Houston region. As we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, the HCC Foundation has an Emergency Relief Fund to provide financial assistance for our students facing economic uncertainty. These funds are helping students pay for unexpected expenses for their basic needs (like food, housing, and access to technology) so they can continue their studies.

If you are able, THANK YOU for considering a gift to meet our students' emergency needs.

Every Dollar You Contribute Will Be Matched Up to $50,000 With a Matching Grant From the HCC Foundation.

ALL donations are appreciated and make a difference for our students like Jamyra.
