Celebrating Our Scholarship Recipients!

We had the privilege of gathering with Highland Community College students, their families, and generous scholarship donors to celebrate this year’s scholarship recipients.

Scholarships do more than help cover the cost of college — they provide encouragement, opportunity, and support as students work toward their educational and career goals. We are incredibly proud of these students and grateful to the donors who continue to invest in their success.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this celebration possible, and congratulations to all of our scholarship recipients! We can’t wait to see where your HCC journey takes you.

Additional photos from the scholarship ceremony are available in an album on the Highland Community College Foundation page.

We were proud to celebrate the dedication of the Switzer Family Research Farm at Highland Community College.

The generosity of Steve and Dorleen Switzer has created a lasting legacy for Highland’s agriculture program, providing hands-on learning opportunities that will benefit students for generations.

We are grateful to the Switzer family and to the many donors, partners, faculty, staff, and friends who helped make this vision possible.

We want to take a moment to recognize just a handful of the amazing businesses and organizations who donated to this year’s Highland Community College Foundation Soirée Silent Auction.

Your generosity helped make our auction a success — and more importantly, helped us raise money for the HOPE Fund, providing support to Highland students when unexpected financial challenges could otherwise stand in the way of their education.

We are incredibly grateful for your generosity, your partnership and your belief in Highland students!

👏 Thank you to:
