As part of our Diablo Valley College community, you are involved in preparing students intellectually, emotionally, and socially to thrive in life.

Without Unrestricted Gifts, We Cannot Function.

99% of our assets are restricted gifts that satisfy program requirements and restrictions.  To enable us to be responsive to emergent student needs like new program creation, emergency response and other unanticipated expenses we rely on unrestricted gifting.  From these funds we direct a response to where the need is the greatest.  Thank you for your continued support!

“While I am unsure what will happen after I graduate from a four-year institution, what I do know for sure is that this scholarship and your generosity will be very helpful in assisting me to pay for tuition and living fees next year as transferring to a four-year is a very large financial commitment.”

 - Nathan M., Continuing Student

While we encourage donors to give unrestricted gifts as this allows us to focus support fluidly where the need is the greatest, such as when we had to adjust everything we did to assist students during the pandemic, we understand that some donors prefer to direct their giving to personal interests and desires.  You can do so through our various directed giving programs below.
