As state appropriations continue to decline, public support becomes vital to the programs and services of Cerro Coso Community College. Financial support is one of the most pressing issues the college faces today. The mission of the CCCC Foundation is to assist the college with fundraisings efforts. "Fundraisers like the Denim and Diamonds Gala along with the support we receive from individuals and local businesses is critical to our mission to educate, innovate, and inspire the many communities we serve," stated Cerro Coso Community College President, Jill Board.
Tickets for the Denim & Diamonds Gala are only $25.00 per person. Tickets are available from the Maturango Museum, Red Rock Books, and the Cerro Coso Bookstore and Business Office. "Dress in your jeans, formal attire, or a combination of both and be prepared to have fun," said Board
