15 for 15 Campaign
The Academic Senate Foundation for California Community Colleges is having new fundraising campaign aimed at supporting the incredible faculty members of California community colleges! In honor of the 15 year anniversary of the Foundation, we are asking for $15 donations to support our scholarship programs.

Together, let’s empower our community college faculty to continue supporting student success and contribute towards building a brighter future for all. Join us in this important cause by donating today!
Innovation Scholarship
The Academic Senate Foundation for California Community Colleges launched the brand new Innovation Scholarship in 2021 to award scholarships for faculty in the California Community College system to attend professional development events across the state. Faculty can apply for a grant of up to $1,500 to participate in professional development (workshops, classes, webinars, institutes and conferences). The goal of these grants would be for faculty to expand their understanding of best practices and apply them at their local colleges and share those results with the field. Awardees are expected to complete a short written follow up with the ASCCC on what ideas or practices they have applied and be willing to share that information with the field. Summaries of completed projects will be shared by the FASCCC and made available online to facilitate dialogue and sharing among faculty. *Any remaining funding will be used for the following year’s applicants.
