Mission

THE LAKELAND FOUNDATION CREATES RELATIONSHIPS AND SOLICITS RESOURCES THROUGHOUT NORTHEAST OHIO AND FOCUSES THEM ON SUPPORTING LAKELAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE'S MISSION "TO PROVIDE QUALITY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES TO MEET THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY." THE FOUNDATION HAS SUPPORTED THE COLLEGE IN THE AREAS OF 1) STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS, 2) FACULTY DEVELOPMENT AND TEACHING ENHANCEMENT PROGRAMS, AND 3) TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES AND SUPPORT TO BENEFIT STUDENTS AND/OR FACULTY.

990 for the year ended June 30, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • ALTHOUGH PROGRAM EXPENSES ARE COMBINED, THE FOUNDATION HAS SUCCESSFULLY SUPPORTED THE COLLEGE IN THE THREE AREAS DESCRIBED BELOW: 1) STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS - THE FOUNDATION'S GOAL IS TO ENSURE THAT NO AREA STUDENT IS DEPRIVED OF A LAKELAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE EDUCATION FOR FINANCIAL REASONS. WHILE THERE ARE A NUMBER OF GOVERNMENT GRANTS AND LOANS AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS, THIS ASSISTANCE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO ALL STUDENTS AND ALMOST NEVER PAYS THE FULL COST OF AN EDUCATION. MANY OF CC'S STUDENTS ARE OFTEN ALREADY WORKING BUT SIMPLY, NO MATTER HOW HARD THEY TRY, LACK SUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO PAY THE ENTIRE COST OF TUITION AND BOOKS. THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES SCHOLARSHIP ASSISTANCE TO THESE STUDENTS TO BRIDGE THE GAP. 2) FACULTY DEVELOPMENT AND TEACHING ENHANCEMENT PROGRAMS - A DISTINGUISHING MARK OF LCC'S FACULTY IS THE QUALITY OF THEIR TEACHING AND COMMITMENT TO INNOVATION IN THE CLASSROOM AND COMMUNITY. THE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS THESE EFFORTS BY AWARDING FACULTY GRANTS FOR NEW COURSE/PROJECT DEVELOPMENT, COLLABORATIONS WITH COMMUNITY AND PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS, AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. 3) TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES AND SUPPORT TO BENEFIT FACULTY AND/OR STUDENTS - TRAINING AND DEVELOPING STUDENTS FOR THE "KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY" CANNOT TAKE PLACE WITHOUT REGULAR ACCESS TO STATE-OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE AND THE INTERNET. STUDENTS WHO CAN BARELY AFFORD TUITION OFTEN DO NOT HAVE RESOURCES FOR A COMPUTER THAT IS REQUIRED FOR CLASSWORK, ESPECIALLY ONLINE COURSES. THE FOUNDATION AWARDS STUDENT GRANTS TO HELP THEM PURCHASE EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE, AND MAINTAIN INTERNET CONNECTIONS. THE FOUNDATION ALSO PROVIDES FUNDING FOR CLASSROOM TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES SO THAT STUDENTS AND FACULTY HAVE ACCESS TO AND EXPERIENCE ON STATE-OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT SPECIFIC TO THE MANY PROGRAMS OF INSTRUCTION THE COLLEGE OFFERS.
