Members of the community are invited to participate in RVCC’s 5th Annual Giving Day on March 18, a 24-hour online, fundraising event in support of Raritan Valley Community College.

Given the pandemic and all of the associated struggles, this year’s Giving Day is focusing on four areas at the College--Student Life, Student Support, Academic & Faculty Programs, and Institutes--representing a significant cross-section of RVCC. Within each theme, we’ve also provided 12 specific giving areas for donations, as well as “write-in” options if your particular interest isn’t reflected. In addition, special incentive awards ($5,000, $3,000, $2,000) from the RVCC Foundation will be awarded to the three areas that attract the most community support.
