STCC Invites Community to Coffee for a Cause Event on Giving Tuesday, Dec. 3

SPRINGFIELD — Springfield Technical Community College (STCC) invites the community to Coffee for a Cause, an event on Giving Tuesday dedicated to raising funds for STCC students.

This year’s event will take place on Tuesday, Dec. 3 from 7 to 11 a.m. in the Building 15 parking lot and in front of Building 19, offering an opportunity for the public to support students facing financial challenges.

Guests are encouraged to stop by the Coffee for a Cause drive-thru to grab a free coffee and consider donating the money they would have used to buy coffee to the fundraiser. Contributions will go directly toward assisting STCC students and supporting programs that serve them. Many students continue to struggle with the costs of food, technology, and other essentials necessary for their academic success.

“We’re excited to invite you to be part of Coffee for a Cause, a community event dedicated to raising funds for STCC students on Giving Tuesday,” said Karen Walker, assistant vice president of Advancement at STCC. “While our free community-college program covers tuition, many students still need support for other essentials. With your help, we can make a real difference.”

As a token of appreciation, donors who contribute at certain levels will be entered into a raffle to win prizes, including a $500 MGM Springfield gift card. The lucky winner will enjoy a one-night stay at MGM Springfield, along with a dining experience at the Chandler Steakhouse.

STCC encourages everyone to join in this meaningful event and help uplift students on their educational journey. Every donation, large or small, can have a powerful impact on the lives of STCC students. For more information about Coffee for a Cause or to make a donation, visit stcc.io/coffee.
