DONOR PROFILE:
Pat Perluke
As a community college graduate herself, Pat wanted to provide students with the same opportunity she had of enjoying the benefits of great education by attending a community college. Through the Harford Community College Foundation, she and her husband established the Kenneth and Patricia Perluke Foundation, which created a scholarship for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) students, Mr. Perluke’s career choice, and area of study.
In addition to giving to the HCC Foundation since 1999 and joining the President’s Circle in 2011, Mrs. Perluke is a member of the Board of Directors for the HCC Foundation. She has given generously of her time, previously serving as a member of the College Advisory Board and serving two terms as a trustee on the HCC Board of Trustees.
Donor Recognition
Donors—whether alumni, friends, community members or businesses—are our lifeline.
Each and every one helps the Harford Community College Foundation provide the financial support our students need to be successful. For that reason, we do everything we can to show our deep appreciation and gratitude. Without you, we would not be here.
President's Circle
Higher education is life-changing. Without the help of generous donors like you, many students would not be able to pursue a college education. That is why Harford Community College established the President's Circle to recognize donors who contribute at least $1,000 in a single fiscal year (July-June). We appreciate not only your generosity, but also the dedication you have to the College and each year we recognize this support at our annual President's Circle dinner
Donor Tree
As a tree marks time with steadfast beauty and quiet growth, here we recognize each donor with respect for the fulfillment of the gifts they have sown in our world. The Harford Community College Foundation's Donor Recognition Tree, located in the lobby of the Chesapeake Center, acknowledges individuals, companies and organizations that provided scholarship funds to help students pay for their education.
Scholarship Reception
This annual recognition event allows those who have reaped the benefits of the student scholarships to meet their donors and thank them, in person, for their generosity.
