See videos about WNC Foundation:
Western Nevada College has been deeply enriched by the generosity of many benefactors - people who have given time, talent and money. These investments have helped build a top quality college. WNC is dedicated to making positive differences in students' lives. In so doing, communities are enriched as qualified individuals take their place in the work force as engaged citizens.
No gift is too small to help keep WNC on the road to excellence. Private giving enhances Legislative funding to meet the special needs of the college and its students. You can participate with a general gift or a donation designated for a special purpose at the college.
You can make the difference in providing for such needs as scholarships, support for the college Child Development Center, special equipment, support for an individual faculty project, or special projects such as the observatory or athletics.
