This gift supports the efforts to fully endow Morrison schools and its students for the Impact Program. Board members from the Foundation represent a variety of roles within the community. The Impact Program is just one of the many community organizations and programs the Foundation supports.
Dr. Lori Cortez, Vice President of Advancement at Sauk Valley Community College, noted, “This board’s leadership and community support are invaluable! We appreciate their support of the Impact program, Morrison students, Morrison schools, and the Morrison community.”
Kathryn Rider, Foundation Board President, shared, “I’m happy the group chose to support this program. A number of our board members have seen how Impact volunteers support a variety of community events and are pleased we can support our students.” The Mustang Impact Challenge is an ongoing $450,000 initiative that fully endows Morrison Schools. Donations toward this effort are still being accepted.
SVCC’s earned-tuition Impact Program provides eligible students who graduate within the Sauk district the opportunity to earn tuition and fees for up to three years at SVCC or until they earn their certificate or degree—whichever comes first. The Impact Program partners with over 280 nonprofit organizations in the Sauk Valley.
