The Western Nevada College Foundation’s primary purpose is to raise awareness, financial resources, and other assets in support of Western Nevada College.

The WNC Foundation manages an array of resources that are critical to Western Nevada College's success – corporate investments, foundation grants, alumni and employee contributions, and financial and in-kind support from many other friends of the college. These resources allow WNC to meet instructional and institutional needs and continue to offer top-quality, affordable education and training to the Carson Valley region.

WNC’s sponsored high school basketball game on Jan. 21 turned out to be an incredible night for student Melissa Bonilla.

Kyle Dalpe, WNC Foundation Executive Director and Chief Advancement Officer Niki Gladys, WNC Vice President of Finance & Administration Coral Lopez and W***y presented the scholarship to her during the Carson-Douglas boys basketball rivalry game.
In the actual game, the Tigers outlasted the Senators (75-62), who are coached by Tyler Golden, the assistant director of Academic Advising & Access at WNC. W***y made his presence known, hanging out with the Senator and Tiger mascots and passing out swag with student government leaders.
