The Alton College Foundation was established in 1999 to help the College provide facilities and equipment that could not otherwise be provided from government funds.
Since creation we have raised nearly £700,000 which has bought equipment for the College, created a quiet garden for students, provided a mini bus for the College, awarded Scholarships to 420 students and provided bursaries and grants of over £145,000 since 2010.
The Foundation is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee and operates totally independent of the College.
