The Virginia Foundation for Community College Education

About VFCCE

The Virginia Foundation for Community College Education bridges the gap between the dream of higher education and the real-world challenges facing many Virginians. Building the Future of Virginia is the Foundation’s action plan to hasten economic and social mobility for under-employed and lower-income residents through education.

Our mission is to build student success and Virginia’s future by supporting its community colleges through:

Building the workforce in critical industries across the state

Developing new programs and pathways to high-demand careers

Increasing the number of first-generation college graduates

Supporting veterans in their transition from service to career

Bridging gaps for at-risk students from high school to college to career

What we’re doing to address educational disparities.

Together with local communities, businesses, governments, and committed donors, the VFCCE is engaged in a transformative $50 million campaign to reimagine how our community colleges will enable us to efficiently and effectively Build the Future of Virginia.
