Arizona Western College Foundation

On this "Giving Tuesday"*, we spoke with Laura and Jen from the AWC Foundation about their Year-End Giving Campaign. We got into what the AWC Foundation does, how it supports students in our community, college scholarships, and why this time of year is so important for giving. Last year, the Foundation provided $6,000 in emergency scholarships. This year, they are aiming for $10,000 to ensure students never have to choose between their education and their basic needs.
