About Berkeley College Foundation
The mission of the Berkeley College Foundation (BCF) is to provide support and resources to students pursuing quality experiences in higher education. Scholarships are awarded to current and prospective students to help defray the cost of tuition and to enhance participation in educational enrichment activities. In addition, the BCF launched an on-campus food pantry at our Newark, New York City, and Woodland Park campuses, establishing a much-needed resource to address the growing economic and food insecurity challenge in higher education.
Based in New Jersey, the charitable organization received 501(c) 3 status in 2015.
