Mission

The Wenatchee Valley College Omak Foundation exists to generate community and financial support, to enhance educational opportunities and resources, and to fund scholarships within the northern region of the college district.

About Us

The Wenatchee Valley College Omak Foundation was formed by a group of citizens in 2000  to encourage and support educational programs offered at Wenatchee Valley College Omak. 

The WVC Omak Foundation is a nonprofit corporation established under Washington law. Guided by a 15-member governing board of community members, the WVC Omak Foundation is ideally suited to accept gifts of cash, real property, endowments, annuities, and gift trusts from donors supportive of WVC Omak.

 

  The WVC Omak Foundation helps students access an education that includes one-on-one support.
