Dear Bronx Community College Family,

Every day, I’m reminded that BCC is more than a college, it’s a community built on resilience, generosity, and hope. When we come together, we do more than help students earn degrees. We change lives, strengthen families, and uplift the entire Bronx borough.

This year’s Giving Tuesday theme, Commitment to Community, reflects exactly who we are. Each one of you — our faculty, staff, alumni, and friends — plays a part in that story. Because of your dedication, our students aren’t just overcoming challenges. They’re redefining what’s possible for themselves and for future generations.

I’m honored to open this year’s Giving Tuesday campaign by making the first gift — a symbol of my commitment to our community and our students. I invite you to join me. Whether your contribution supports the Greatest Needs Fund, the Amadou Diallo Scholarship, Help a Bronco Graduate, or our Food Pantry, every gift, no matter the size carries the power to open doors and change futures.

Our collective commitment has always shaped brighter futures. Let’s continue leading with generosity and purpose.

With gratitude,

Dr. Larry D. Johnson, Jr.
President, Bronx Community College
