Hear from our Students
Allow us to share the inspiring words of students whose lives have been touched by the Barstow College Foundation:
"Receiving the Jim Rajacich Scholarship and the William and Dorothy Mann Scholarship has been both an honor and a powerful reminder that hard work and perseverance are recognized and valued. As a Welding Technology student at Barstow Community College, these scholarships have not only provided financial support but have also strengthened my confidence in pursuing my goals and building a future through the skilled trades. Knowing these scholarships carry the legacy of individuals who dedicated themselves to their community makes this recognition even more meaningful. Their investment in students like me creates opportunities that will have a lasting impact far beyond the classroom, and for that, I am deeply grateful."
