Support Endow-a-Bed
Endow-a-Bed = Free Room and Board
Sierra College is building affordable student housing with 354 beds. Priority for residence will be given to full-time students with the highest financial need. Rent will be as low as $550 per month for income-eligible students. With a philanthropic investment of $250,000 per bed, an endowment will be established that offers free room and board, in perpetuity, to one student each year.
Sierra College Foundation is Working to Endow 10 Beds
Nine Beds Down, One to Go
To date, nine beds have been endowed. Thank you to the following for leading the charge:

While $550 per month may be considered affordable in our region – there are students who cannot pay.
