Current LBCC Students - Long Beach Rotary Scholarship Foundation

“The Long Beach Rotary Scholarship Foundation plays a critical role in the success of many Long Beach City College students. For several consecutive years Rotary has been the single largest donor to our student scholarships. We are tremendously grateful that this organization gives so generously to support our students and their educational goals.”
