Philanthropy
Employee Giving
At Polk State College, faculty and staff are in the business of enriching lives through quality higher education and workforce training. We also strive to expand access to the life-transforming power of a Polk State education in various ways including philanthropy. Your continued support contributes directly to the enhanced quality of life for not only Polk State students, but also their families, future generations, and our Polk County community.
Enriching Students' Lives Through Giving
The Polk State College Foundation has developed the Enriching Students’ Lives Through Giving Campaign as an additional avenue for employees to contribute to student success. The Foundation graciously requests your consideration of a one-time gift or monthly financial support via payroll deduction to be deposited into the Foundation's unrestricted fund that supports our students and their respective needs. You may also consider a contribution toward a specific program or purpose at the College.
On behalf of the Foundation, thank you for your service to our students and all the ways you go above and beyond to support their success. Providing financial resources during challenging times can change the trajectory of academic journeys, resulting in persistence to graduation and the achievement of career goals. You are contributing to the strong talent pipeline of highly skilled professionals who go on to serve as our community’s healthcare workers, public safety professionals, teachers, entrepreneurs, leaders, and more — that is why We are Polk!
