In 1994, a small group of dedicated community members created a tax-exempt non-profit organization in order to provide supplemental funding to Monterey Peninsula College. Since then, the Monterey Peninsula College (MPC) Foundation has raised approximately $16 million in support of MPC and its students. As the strategic fundraising arm of the college, the Foundation is uniquely positioned to support innovation and excellence at the college while helping students in making their dreams become a reality.
