Basic Needs Fund
Our student population is overwhelmingly from low-and-moderate income families. More than 40% are eligible for Federal Pell grants, 65% percent for the CA Board of Governors Fee Waiver program and more than 80% qualify for some form of financial aid.
We are grateful that many from the community have asked how they can help during this COVID-19 public health crisis that has forced students off campus. This is an important way to support the immediate needs of Mt. SAC students. The Basic Needs Fund provides food resources, personal necessities, housing referrals and case-management support.
