Giving to the Maricopa Community Colleges
Donate Online
Contributions to the Maricopa Community Colleges are accepted by the Maricopa Community Colleges Foundation and are used to support students and educational programs. Scholarships are most often awarded to students who show exceptional promise in a chosen field of study or who may not have the financial resources to pay for their education.
Your gift is important to the future of deserving students and it is important to you, too. We will work with you to ensure that your gift is used the way you want it to be used. For example, if you wish to have your gift specifically designated as a scholarship or memorial, we will make sure your wishes are accommodated.
There are many ways to make contribution.
Current Gifts create immediate educational opportunities and are as easy as writing a check or authorizing a credit card payment.

Parting Gifts
Planning to retire? If so, please give serious consideration to including a "Parting Gift" in your retirement planning. A Parting Gift enables you to dedicate a portion of your payout for unused vacation and/or sick time - 5%, 10%, or a specific dollar amount, for example - to benefit a college, department, program, or scholarship fund for which you have a special affinity. If the amount is large enought, it can become an endowment that will provide support in perpetuity.
A Parting Gift can provide a personal legacy of support for what you have most valued in your career at the Maricopa Community Colleges and can help reduce the tax liability for the amount of your payout. And it's easy! Your Parting Gift can be made through a one-time payroll deduction from your retirement payout, by check or by credit card.
If you have questions or would like more information regarding Parting Gifts contact:
Ray Weinhold, Vice President for Development
(480) 731-8838
