SPACC’s Charitable FoundationDonate today!

Why the Foundation is critical now and in the future Economic success of the Twin Cities is critically linked to higher education and investment in human capital:

•Jobs requiring an associates degree or higher are increasing. Now 30% more businesses require an associates degree, compared to 1998, and almost 25% more require a bachelors degree

•In the Twin Cities region, of the adults who earn less than $17,500, only 26% have a college degree or higher.

Congratulations to the Class of 2011! This year, the Foundation awarded scholarships to 37 students totaling $37,000.

Career Investment Scholarships From homelessness to learning English as a high school student, the majority of

our scholarship recipients face enormous challenges on their path to college.
