The Power of Giving
At SUNY Niagara, philanthropy becomes opportunity. Every gift—no matter the size—helps students open doors to a brighter future. Together, we transform lives: our own and those of others.
Each year, hundreds of alumni, families, corporations, and community partners give for their own meaningful reasons. Some honor their loved ones, others give back to the place that shaped their journey, and many simply believe in the power of education to change lives.
Supporting the Mission, Transforming Futures
The NCCC Foundation is the heart of this generosity. Through scholarships, programs, and community partnerships, we bring SUNY Niagara’s mission to life. Our donors make it possible for students to be taught, inspired, and empowered to achieve their goals.
With every act of giving, futures are transformed. Together, we strengthen SUNY Niagara, fuel innovation, and create opportunities for generations to come.
