Priorities Supporting Student Success
The MATC Foundation is the college’s philanthropic partner in student success. Our role: secure private financial resources to help remove barriers to college education, accelerate access to careers and deliver skilled talent to the Milwaukee area.
Not all student needs fall within specific scholarship and academic support funds. To flexibly respond to financial barriers to student success, gifts to the MATC Foundation Student Emergency Grant Fund and the MATC Foundation Area of Greatest Need Fund are appreciated.
Emergency grants from the MATC Foundation provide support in one-time, unusual or unforeseen circumstances that create an immediate financial hardship that, without financial assistance, could require students to interrupt their studies.
The Greatest Need Fund provides the MATC Foundation the flexibility to respond to student needs that do not align with other fund focuses, such as professional licensure exam fees or immediate needs that exceed emergency grant caps.
Your generosity allows the MATC Foundation to prioritize student success over all other criteria.
