Give to the Fund

Financial gifts to the JDJ Strike Opportunity Scholarship Fund with the Howard County Community Foundation allow Northeast Iowa Community College Foundation to award financial assistance to students pursuing higher education. As the cost of tuition continues to rise, it is more important now than ever to diminish the barrier of affordability and allow students to focus on what is most important - their education.
