Giving

Support a student, transform a life.

Your gift transforms lives.

Our students have big dreams. Many also face big obstacles. The Olympic College Foundation works to ensure that the cost of attending college isn’t one of them. We give out more than $200,000 a year in scholarships. For many recipients, those dollars are the difference between staying in school and dropping out. When you give to the Olympic College Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, you’re investing in their future. You’re transforming a life.

PHILANTHROPY is based on voluntary action for the common good. It is a tradition of giving and sharing that is primary to the quality of life. To assure that philanthropy merits the respect and trust of the general public, and that donors and prospective donors can have full confidence in the not-for-profit organizations and causes they are asked to support, we declare that all donors have these rights.

  • To be informed of the organization’s mission, of the way the organization intends to use donated resources, and of its capacity to use donations effectively for their intended purposes.
  • To be informed of the identity of those serving on the organization’s governing board, and to expect the  board to exercise prudent judgment in its stewardship responsibilities.
  • To have access to the organization’s most recent financial statements.
  • To be assured their gifts will be used for the purpose for which they were given.
  • To receive appropriate acknowledgment and recognition.
  • To be assured that information about their donations is handled with respect and with confidentiality  to the extent provided by law.
  • To expect that all relationships with individuals representing organizations of interest to the donor will  be professional in nature.
  • To be informed whether those seeking donations are volunteers, employees of the organization or hired solicitors.
  • To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing lists that an organization may intend to share.
  • To feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
