History, Vision, and Mission


The Gulf Coast Community College Foundation, Inc., was incorporated on October 16, 1967 by the State of Florida as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation.  The original charter was signed by Dr. Richard Morley, president of GCCC at the time of incorporation, Captain Mark Starkweather, Mrs. Mark Starkweather, Mrs. M.F. Parker, Amos Howard, John Moseley, and Roland Vines. Since that time, the Foundation has grown considerably in membership and assets while remaining faithful to its original philosophy and purpose.
