ECC Foundation
Celebrating 25 years of service to the college and community.
The ECC Foundation is a private, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization governed by a volunteer board of directors. Since 1984, the Foundation has provided private financial support to ECC students and college programs, thanks to numerous donations from generous individuals, families and businesses.
Executive Director of Institutional Advancement and the ECC Foundation
