Welcome to the Cerritos College Foundation

You may ask, “What does the Cerritos College Foundation do?” The simple answer is: raise money to provide awards and scholarships for student success. Currently, the Foundation administers 75 scholarships covering over 25 areas of study. And, the scholarship program continues to expand as more and more people and organizations begin to see the value of giving something back by investing in the future of our students.

Our 22-member Board of Directors is made up of a dedicated group of community leaders and college constituent representatives who volunteer their time to promote and enhance the educational experience at Cerritos College.

I am pleased to announce a new and exciting fundraising opportunity that benefits both you and the Foundation – travel! Visit our travel website www.ccftravel.com and book your travel, order flowers, or even book a tee time for golf. This new service is like having our own Expedia® just for supporters and friends of the college and the Foundation! Everything you need is right on the site. You get access to the same airlines, hotels and rental car companies, cruises, and vacation packages you find on all the other major travel websites and best of all, you get some of the lowest travel prices on the Internet. When you book travel at www.ccftravel.com the Cerritos College Foundation will receive 60% of travel commissions from our booking agency.

The Foundation’s success stems from relationships. At the Foundation we firmly believe in creating alliances between corporate and college communities, uniting in a way that benefits both parties. Daily, this alliance continues to grow as the Foundation expands beyond the College boundaries into a world where the opportunities are endless. A recent example of our expanding corporate alliances is the capital campaign to support the Cerritos Center for Transportation Technologies. Visit www.scctt.org for more information on this new state of the art facility and the programs it will feature for our students and local automotive dealerships.

I invite you to explore our web pages that are designed to inform you about the Foundation’s programs and special events, as well as provide opportunities for you to support our students. Our online donation site is totally secure and all information will be kept confidential.
