The Ozarks Tech Foundation exists to inspire support of education through giving and by establishing a culture of philanthropy. It works to secure private financial resources to support the college in its mission of providing accessible and affordable learning opportunities.

The Foundation provides scholarships, secures funding for building expansions, raises funds for equipment purchases, advocates for the college, and ensures a successful future for Ozarks Tech. Each year, the Foundation awards more than $650,000 in scholarship assistance to hundreds of Ozarks Tech students with financial need. It also supports the programs and capital projects at the college by securing and managing funds on its behalf.

As the college continues to grow, the Foundation works to keep tuition low and to build additional spaces for student use. It secures resources to obtain the latest equipment and instructional materials, ensuring Ozarks Tech classes keep pace with evolving industry standards. The Foundation continually advocates for the college and strengthens connections between Ozarks Technical Community College and the broader community.

The impact of our work is made possible through the generosity of donors—individuals, businesses, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends of the college—who believe in the power of education. Whether through a one-time gift or an endowed scholarship, donor contributions directly support student success and transform lives. The Foundation is honored to steward these contributions with transparency, gratitude, and a deep commitment to advancing opportunity through education.
