Increasingly, businesses are discovering the benefits of building long-term, strategic, symbiotic relationships with colleges and universities. Partnering with Highland Community College presents the following advantages:

Focused stewardship: From day one, you will have access to a Foundation staff professional who will assist with creating strategies to enhance your partnership with HCC.

Increased visibility on campus: Through your engagements with HCC, recognition of your company will grow. We will discuss the optimal way to display your company name through HCC communication channels.

Added Events & Benefits: Highland Community College Foundation’s newly developed Corporate Partnership Program offers our corporate partners the option to support and be affiliated with four Foundation events and with Highland Community College.

In addition to partnering with the Foundation on its two long-standing events, we’ve offered two additional events including the Annual Distinguished Alumni Awards and Reception.
