By lightening the burdens of others, together, we can inspire a generation, strengthen a community and change a life. Every dollar invested in the San Jacinto College Foundation helps students succeed, change their lives and provide economic prosperity to local families and communities. Together, we make dreams possible.
Save the date for the Foundation Gala on Friday, May 20, 2022 to celebrate 60 years of service to the community and raise funds for student scholarships.
Philanthropist and author MacKenzie Scott and her husband Dan Jewett have donated $30 million to San Jacinto College, the largest private gift in the College’s history.
"The scholarships that I have received through the San Jacinto College Foundation have provided a great deal of financial relief for me, and I can’t thank these scholarship donors enough. Without their donations, I would not have been able to complete my associate degree." -- Zahra Cope, San Jacinto College Student
Each year, San Jacinto College awards thousands of student scholarships that have been funded through the generosity of donors like you.
The San Jac Foundation believes in dreams. We know the incredible impact an education or workforce training has on the lives of our community and on the economy.
Giving isn’t just about scholarships, an emergency fund or a food pantry. It’s about helping students with ambition and drive. It’s about giving that changes lives.
San Jac alumni have won the World Series, and also filled vital roles -- far from any fanfare. You are part of our legacy and we want to be part of yours. By joining the Alumni Association, you pave the way for the next generation of students.
We work with students every day and see their greatest needs, which means our funding priorities are directly related to student achievement.
The Promise Program guarantees tuition and course materials funding for balances due after financial aid is exhausted. The “Promise” to students, many of whom are the first in their family to attend college, is that they have the financial commitment to continue and achieve their educational goals.
