Invest in student success to grow our economy
“CLC scholarships gave me the opportunity to place 100 percent of my time and effort on my academic goals. I owe my accomplishments to the CLC Foundation. There are many hard-working students out there like me who just need the right help financially.”
– Cristian Carillo, transferred to University of Wisconsin-Parkside, January 2016
Having an educated workforce is key to growing and maintaining a successful business and strengthening our local economy. Over the last decade, 80 percent of Lake County employers have hired people who have improved their skills by studying at the College of Lake County (CLC).
Because CLC plays such a vital role, we are inviting local businesses, organizations and clubs to invest in a philanthropic opportunity that will strengthen our local economy and prepare the next generation of highly skilled and educated workers.
We invite you to become a community partner and make CLC students’ impossible dreams become achievable goals.
Opportunities to donate to CLC:
• Donate equipment or supplies.
• Share your knowledge by serving on a Career Advisory Committee.
• Provide employment opportunities.
• Create a custom scholarship.
• Be an event sponsor.

“Merit-based scholarships encourage
students to focus on their academics,
and need-based scholarships allow
students to get the education they
need regardless of their financial
background. Scholarships are crucial
for many students who need a bit of
help to achieve their academic and
career goals.”
– Felicia Rivas

Printers used in CLC’s laser/photonics/optics program are examples of in-kind donations.
“ When a scholarship is given to a student, that
student gets a sense of pride because he knows
his hard work is appreciated. It makes the student
work harder to get good grades, because he knows
the donor of that scholarship is counting on him to
put hard-earned money to good use.”
– Daniel Thomas Jablonski
