What is Friends of DSCC?
The
Friends of DSCC Fund is derived solely from gifts, donations, bequests
and other private monetary contributions from people like you.
The University places specific requirements on the utilization
of gift fund accounts, and DSCC uses these funds primarily to support
unique, non-recurring needs of children and families that could not
otherwise be met through the DSCC program or other sources of assistance.
Friends of DSCC is a wonderful opportunity
to make a
difference in the life of a child.

DSCC has helped families purchase:
