Education influences the future by changing lives. With the generous support of the community, Victoria College strives to ensure that every student who seeks an education can realize that dream.

VC students and graduates invest personally and financially in the communities in which they live and work. As you look around the Crossroads area, you will see that VC graduates are everywhere — they are nurses and paramedics, computer specialists and accountants, police officers and firefighters, business entrepreneurs and teachers, engineers and industry technicians.

While VC remains focused on its mission to provide quality, affordable education throughout our community, state funding continues to decline. The generosity of private contributors provides the continued basis for meeting the needs of Victoria College students. In turn, the growth and development of a qualified workforce and strong regional economy are secured.

Your help is vital to continuing the legacy of achievement that begins at VC. Every contribution brings Victoria College closer to meeting the goal of providing increased opportunities for students, faculty, and staff. For students, educational dreams

are fulfilled; for faculty and staff, instructional and support services are enhanced; for the community, positive economic impact is realized.

Victoria College’s ability to change lives begins with you!
