Case for Support
As Bermuda College looks toward the future, it is now evident that the continued success of the College will demand a significant infusion of funds as it seeks to modernize and enhance its facilities, faculty development, equipment, student financial assistance, courses and programs. Upgrades and modernization to the campus are urgently required to ensure that the College can continue to meet the needs of 21st century students. Government continues its role as a key partner by providing 78% of annual revenue. While this support is significant, broader support is required to cover the costs required for the upgrades and modernization efforts. For information about why your support matters, you may view the Foundation’s Case for Support Brochure.
