Parkland Giving Day donations provide scholarships to help students with tuition, fees, and materials. They can also go towards Creating Impact funds, which are annual unrestricted gifts to support the most urgent needs of academic programs.

For last year’s Day of Living, more than $55,386 was donated. All funds go directly to Parkland College and its students.
