Join JCCC Student Senate as we help brighten the season for JCCC students, faculty, and staff in need. Nominate someone you know who needs holiday help. Student Senate will add nominees to our Giving Tree, where the JCCC community can donate gifts or money to make the holidays happier for those who need them most.

You can nominate a student, faculty, or staff person at Get Involved@JCCC.  

Monetary and gift donations will be accepted at SignUpGenius and ShopJCCC.

Senators are here to serve you! Student Senate meets every Monday at 1 p.m. in MTC 211.
