WCC Sparks Foundation Board
The Sparks State Technical College Foundation was organized in 1991 to support the former Sparks State Technical College by providing scholarships, instructional support, and professional development for staff members. In 2004, the Board of Directors changed the name of the Foundation to the Wallace Community College Sparks Campus (WCCS) Foundation. Monies raised by the Foundation are designated to assist Sparks Campus students with scholarship opportunities. The Board of Directors consists of community leaders from Barbour and surrounding counties. The Sparks Campus Foundation Board Members link below directs you to the Board Members information.
