Whether working with students to provide student enrichment and academic program support, or providing endowment and facilities enhancement, the Black Hawk College Foundation is committed to securing resources in the interest of education.

Serving more than 30,000 individuals every year—the college mission is to provide everyone with the opportunity for lifelong learning. Whether working toward a transfer degree, refreshing basic skills, or enhancing workforce development, Black Hawk College provides more than excellence in education – but a chance to reach for one’s full potential!

The majority of our students come from and remain in the area following their studies. That means our nurses, child care providers, engineers, accountants, police officers, teachers and entrepreneurs who start at Black Hawk College will likely stay here. This makes us a strong economic player in our district.

Because of Black Hawk College, the community benefits through our impact on local economic development; business and industry benefit through our workforce development programs; and individuals benefit through our focus on personal growth and advancement.
