RV Lives Launching Soon

The RVCC Foundation will be launching a new fundraising campaign later this month called "RV Lives." This effort is 100% dedicated to raising much-needed funds for our students who, now more than ever, need our help. As you might expect, many RVCC students and their families have lost work and are struggling to afford tuition, rent, food, and other basic living expenses. Some are reassessing their immediate plans for the future. With your support, we can assist with these critical needs and help our students maintain progress along their educational journeys.
