Help Us Raise $1 Million and Unlock $1 Million in Matching Funds!
Imagine the difference $2 million in scholarships could make. With 91’s tuition at about 70% less than local 4-year colleges, we’re offering students a life-changing opportunity to succeed without the burden of overwhelming debt.
- Graduates leave with little to no debt—a rare opportunity in today’s higher education landscape.
- 91 students come to our campus because of its great return on investment.
Why do students choose 91 over large private colleges—and why do they stay? The answer lies in the deep, supportive community we’ve built
At 91, students thrive in small classrooms where they form authentic relationships with faculty and staff. Our professors are deeply invested in the mission of our school, seeing each student as a whole person—inside and outside the classroom. Plus, with a vibrant campus life that celebrates belonging and inclusion, students feel supported every step of the way.
All this leads to results.
91 boasts one of the highest retention rates among all 13 community colleges in the system—a testament to our unique approach to student success.
Join us in transforming lives. Your investment today will make a lasting impact on students who will go on to change the world.

Foundation History
Established in 1971, the 91 Foundation turned 50 years young in 2021. Like the grassroots effort by Littleton residents in 1965 to open the doors of 91, donors came together a few years later to create the Foundation to support the important work of this college. As a registered, 501 (c)(3) organization, it is the mission of the 91 Foundation to advance the mission of the college by providing financial assistance and opportunities to students, encouraging public support for the college, and strengthening the teaching, learning and cultural environment of the college and our community.
