Your Gift Made an Incredible Difference on PCC’s Big Give Day!

Thanks to your support, we’ve strengthened and expanded scholarships and programs at PCC — including the Advanced and Applied Technologies Pathway. 

Your gift is helping us bring hands-on, industry-relevant training directly to high school students across our region. With your support, we’ve been able to invest in project management resources to expand the mobile welding trailer’s reach — bringing career exploration and skills development straight to future welders where they are.

The PCC Mobile Welding Training Center opens doors for students who might not otherwise have access to this kind of equipment or opportunity. Whether they go on to pursue welding careers or other skilled trades, your generosity helps ignite that spark and makes it possible for them to imagine new futures.

We’re excited to get the training center out to even more schools this year — and your gift is making that possible.

As we build on this momentum, your involvement remains essential. Whether through advocacy, volunteering, or continued giving, you play a vital role in removing financial barriers for Portland Community College students. If you’d like to learn more about the impact of your support or ways to stay involved, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for believing in our mission and investing in the success of our students and programs. We truly appreciate you!

With gratitude,
