Bladen Community College is dedicated to delivering a great education, but we also desire to share the best overall experience possible for each of our students. This would not be possible without the gifts of our very generous alumni and friends. In the past donor gifts have gone towards scholarships and emergency financial assistance to our students. Future gifts will be put towards these same efforts as well as expanding opportunities to faculty and community events. We ask that you will please consider giving a gift to Bladen Community College Foundation to allow us to continue to give the students the very best education and overall experience possible.

Bladen Community College Foundation offers many opportunities and avenues in which to invest in the future of the college. Here you will find answers to many general questions you may have as well as find our who we are, whom we serve, what we are doing, and ways you can help.

Mission Statement

The BCC Foundation was created to provide financial support to BCC, beyond that which can be obtained through state and local allocated funds. Such funds never meet all the needs for scholarships, and cultural opportunities. Because of these limitations, the foundation needs to look for private donor support.
