Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE BRCC EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION BUILDS COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS AND SECURES RESOURCES TO STRENGTHEN THE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES OF BLUE RIDGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE. THE COLLEGE'S IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY IS PROFOUND, PROVIDING THE PATHWAY TO SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS AND LOCAL EMPLOYERS. CURRENT STATE AND LOCAL APPROPRIATIONS PROVIDE FUNDING FOR ONLY THE BASIC OPERATIONS OF THE COLLEGE AND ARE NOT SUFFICIENT TO KEEP PACE WITH THE CHALLENGES OF MEETING BRCC'S DIVERSE STUDENT NEEDS AND ADDRESSING WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES AND PROGRAMS. TO MEET THE COMMUNITY'S INCREASING NEEDS FOR PROGRAMS, SERVICES, FACILITIES, AND SCHOLARSHIPS, PRIVATE FUNDS ARE NECESSARY. FUNDS RAISED BY THE BRCC EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION REPRESENT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ADEQUACY, AS PROVIDED BY TRADITIONAL SOURCES OF FUNDING, AND EXCELLENCE, THAT ONLY PRIVATE INVESTMENT CAN PROVIDE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES GRANTS FOR SCHOLARSHIPS AND OTHER SUPPORT TO BLUE RIDGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

  • DURING THE 2024-25 ACADEMIC YEAR, THE FOUNDATION PROVIDED 141 NAMED SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS TOTALING $550,404 TO 396 DESERVING STUDENTS. THE MAJORITY OF THESE AWARDS WERE BASED ON FINANCIAL NEED. WHILE A DEGREE AT BLUE RIDGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE APPEARS AFFORDABLE, ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO FOUR-YEAR INSTITUTIONS, IT IS BEYOND THE MEANS OF MANY STUDENTS AND FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITY. THESE SCHOLARSHIPS WERE PROVIDED TO STUDENTS IN BOTH CREDIT AND NON-CREDIT PROGRAMS. AMONG THEM WERE AWARDS FOR PARTICIPANTS IN BLUE RIDGE PROMISE, A BRIDGE PROGRAM FOR HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS INTERESTED IN ATTENDING BRCC AFTER GRADUATION. OTHERS WERE AWARDS TO HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS PROVIDING A PATHWAY TO ENROLL IN WORKFORCE COURSES AND RECEIVE CREDENTIALS IN CAREERS SUCH AS CERTIFIED CLINICAL MEDICAL ASSISTING, HEAVY EQUIPMENT OPERATION, PHLEBOTOMY, AND WELDING. EVERY ONE OF THESE SCHOLARSHIPS GAVE STUDENTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE THEIR EDUCATIONAL AND CAREER GOALS, THUS IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THEIR FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITIES IN WHICH THEY LIVE AND WORK.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
