Many students could not pursue their dreams of a better life without the help of people like you. Your tax-deductible gift can help:
• Provide scholarships for deserving students
• Support faculty and staff development
• Promote cultural enrichment activities for the community
• Launch new programs or special projects
• Help build an endowment for the future
Scholarships
Because we are committed to seeing all of our students realize their educational and career goals, providing scholarships for students is the Development Foundation's top priority. While the Foundation stretches scholarship monies as far as possible, it is more important than ever to secure additional funds from private contributors.
Through a scholarship gift to the Hinds CC Development Foundation, contributors can actually monitor the progress of a student as he or she benefits from the donation, reaching goals that once seemed unattainable. Providing a Hinds scholarship for a deserving student is also an excellent way to honor or memorialize a loved one, and individual criteria can be matched to the donor’s desires.
Life Star
Hinds Community College is committed to providing quality service. In an effort to continually offer top-notch service, Life Star Recognition has been established to recognize members of the Hinds family who have aided you or been a "shining star" to you. Realizing that all employees of Hinds Community College are in a position to make a difference in the lives of the people they serve, the Life Star Initiative is a program to recognize any employee who is a "star" in the life of a person. These individuals are rewarded for their efforts to go beyond a job description by being recognized. The recipients below were selected because they encourage, help direct and are diligent in their efforts to come to the aid of those that they come in contact with, whether a colleague, business associate, or student. There are seven various categories of employment that are recognized so that the full spectrum of employees are covered. All customers of the College-students, parents, alumni, businesses, industries, community groups, vendors, colleagues, etc. can play a vital role in recognizing those individuals who truly are "stars." The Life Star Award is designed to promote good customer service both internally and externally while continuing to recognize job performance, professionalism, and participation in community service and activities. This is your opportunity to tell us how someone at Hinds CC has helped you. Take a look at our Life Star Recipients.
