"I cannot thank you enough for giving me this opportunity to prove that I am worthy of this scholarship, and I hope that I continue to impress for the future to come.”

– Alec Bauer, SUNY Orange Board of Trustees Scholarship

 

 

​You can help SUNY Orange students reach their full potential by making a gift to SUNY Orange Foundation. We are committed to being prudent stewards of all gifts, fulfilling donor intent, and making sure that SUNY Orange students have the resources they need to follow their dreams. 

​

Invest in a student today and watch them invest in others tomorrow!

​

75th Anniversary Fund: We are excited to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Orange County Community College in 2025! To help us celebrate, please consider a gift to the 75th Anniversary Fund. This fund will be used to modernize classrooms in order to better prepare our students for the careers of tomorrow. Teaching methods are now more inclusive and participative and require classroom environments that support this. Desks that are mobile, flexible and ergonomically designed will help students learn and study more effectively. Thank you for helping us provide the best education possible to SUNY Orange students!

 

Buy a 75th Anniversary Commemorative Ornament: Want a keepsake of this important milestone? You can purchase a 75th anniversary commemorative ornament showcasing the iconic Morrison Hall, beautifully crafted by Beacon Designs, America's leading ornament manufacturer. Proceeds from the sale of these ornaments will be used to support the 75th Anniversary Fund.

 

Annual Fund: A gift to the annual fund ensures SUNY Orange has the resources it needs to provide the best possible education to its students. Gifts to the annual fund are the most flexible and contribute towards Presidential scholarships, necessary classroom upgrades, the campus ambassador program, multiple student leadership programs and anything else the College may need.   

​

The Student Emergency Fund: This fund provides resources for SUNY Orange students to help pay for urgent expenses triggered by unforeseen events that threaten their ability to stay in college. Issues such as homelessness or threat of eviction; medical or dental emergencies; domestic violence; theft; and lack of transportation or child care are just some examples of the real world issues our students face every day. Investing in this fund can help a student get past that financial hurdle and get them back on the road to graduation.

​

Establish a Scholarship: The best way to help a student is to make sure that finances are not an obstacle on the road to their success and starting a scholarship, or contributing to an existing scholarship, is a great way to accomplish that.
