What We Do

As the only community college in Thurston County, SPSCC plays a vital role in shaping the future of our region. We work to ensure that unmet student financial needs are identified and equitably met using traditional and innovative strategies that connect student needs to donor goals. Our graduates become the builders, innovators, and problem-solvers who fuel our local economy. Through scholarships, grants, programs, and community events we are working together to sound off for student success and make the Puget Sound region a better place to live, work, and grow!

Whether you have questions, need assistance, or want to stay updated, we're happy to help! Contact us at foundation@spscc.edu or call 360-596-5430.
