ADOPT A STUDENT,
CHANGE A LIFE

At Florida College, we are committed to preparing students for better service to God and the world. Giving to the Adopt Program ensures that students receive the financial support they need to complete their degree at Florida College.

When you adopt a student, you are investing in a brighter future.


Adopt a Student

The James R. Cope Adopt Program

Welcome to the heart of generosity and impact! Many students aspire to pursue higher education, but financial constraints often act as roadblocks. The James R. Cope Adopt Program recognizes the importance of addressing these challenges, ensuring that no deserving student is left behind due to economic barriers.

Through the Adopt program, I have felt a true sense of family through the connection of FC. It has certainly encouraged me to continue my education but especially to give back to people in my life even if I might not know them.

-Daniel

FC is more than I ever dreamed it would be. This is the only place that lets me have great relationships with faculty, staff, and student body. I love my FC story – it is setting me up for success physically, socially, academically, and spiritually.

-Emmarie

The adopt program donors have impacted my journey with allowing me to continue my studies while playing my sport here at Florida College. I would love to thank them so much for what they’ve done. I will continue to put in the maximum amount of effort for my remaining time here at FC. Thank you!

-Jhon

The Adopt Program is what gave me the opportunity to help relieve my financial burden and is what made it possible to be at FC the past four years, furthering my education with like-minded people who push me towards God. Because my adopt parents have such hearts of a servant, I have been able to grow in my faith and it is a gift that I will forever be grateful for.

-Rachel

Being a student at Florida College has led to athletic, spiritual, and personal growth. This would not have been possible if it was not for the Adopt Program and its donors. It helped me connect with other students as well as with other brothers and sisters in Christ. My donors are all very special people to me and their generosity encourages me to be kind and giving toward others.

Giving to the Adopt Program

When you donate to the Adopt Program, you can assist these students in their Florida College education, while having a personal connection to a student in the program. You will be matched with a current student and receive letters updating you on their progress and college experience. During the annual Bible Lecture series in February, you are invited to attend a reception where you will have the opportunity to connect with some of our Adopt students.

Your gift goes to students with financial need enrolled in this program. Each academic semester you will receive a letter from an Adopt student updating you on their school year. Some benefactors like to set up criteria for the type of student they would like to hear from (for example: a nursing student, soccer player, music major, etc.), which helps us match you with the right student and make the experience more personal. Other benefactors simply want to hear from any deserving student and look forward to getting to know more about a student through their letters. Either way, your generous contribution gives students an opportunity to attend Florida College, along with the knowledge that they are genuinely cared for and supported by a someone who wants to see them succeed.

The Adopt Program thrives on the generosity of donors who recognize the potential within each student. By addressing financial needs, you can empower students to overcome obstacles and pursue their academic dreams. Join us as we strive to educate the whole person to imitate Christ in service to God and the world. Together, we can make a difference, one student at a time.
