Rochester community and technical college foundation invests in programs to delivery high quality education and to help our students succeed. This includes grants to empower faculty and staff to expand and enhance quality education. In fiscal year 2025, this included purchase of new equipment, supporting student research, and career exploration for stem fields. The grants supported student basic needs (food pantry, emergency grants, emergency mental health counselling). In addition, we support a vibrant college experience through support for athletics, fine arts and student club activities.

Rochester community and technical college foundation provides student hands on learning. Gifts-in-kind of program equipment and supplies assist students in hands-on learning and ensure students are "work-ready" with access to the latest technology in the workplace. In 2025, this includes donation of vehicles, vaccines and needles, n95 masks and testing supplies.
