Thanks to a $4,000 donation from Community Bank, N.A., North Country Community College will be able to help more students navigate those challenges and continue their education.Representatives from Community Bank recently visited NCCC’s Saranac Lake campus to present the donation to the North Country Community College Foundation’s Student Emergency Needs Fund.The fund provides financial assistance to students facing unexpected, one-time expenses that could interfere with their ability to attend classes or complete their studies. These expenses include emergency car repairs, utility bills, medical and dental expenses and other unforeseen financial hardships.“Community Bank is proud to support the North Country Community College Foundation’s Student Emergency Needs Fund and the important role it plays in helping students overcome unexpected challenges,” said Amy Oliveras, VP, branch and community development manager. “By helping ease the burden of unforeseen expenses, this fund provides the students with peace of mind and allows them to stay focused on their studies and their future.” For students already balancing the demands of college, work and personal responsibilities, even a relatively small financial setback can have a significant impact.“Our students are balancing so much more than just their classes, and sometimes an unexpected expense can make it difficult to stay focused on their education,” said Ang Brice, NCCC’s assistant director of student life and chair of the Emergency Funding Review Committee. “Thanks to the generosity of community partners like Community Bank, we’re able to step in and provide support when students need it most. Just as importantly, we’re reminding them that they don’t have to face these challenges alone. They have a whole team of people here at North Country rooting for them.”</div></body>
