Mid Michigan College has been awarded a $10,000 gift from the Gladwin Community Foundation Health Improvement Fund and a $10,000 gift from the Clare Community Foundation Community Investment Fund to support the Creating A Dream Nursing Lab renovation project on the College’s Harrison Campus.
The project includes the creation of a new simulation lab, additional classroom space, and new technology to prepare students for real-world healthcare careers.
Funded in part by a $2 million state grant and significant contributions from generous local donors, this project will expand capacity and ensure that the College can meet the growing demand for highly skilled healthcare professionals.
“We are grateful to the Gladwin and Clare Community Foundations for their generous support,” shared Alexa Carey, Executive Director of the Mid Michigan College Foundation. Their investment helps us go beyond the basics and create a true ‘dream lab’ where students can practice, learn, and grow with state-of-the-art equipment. This experience will give them the confidence and skills to thrive in healthcare careers and ultimately serve the needs of our local communities.”
The Gladwin and Clare County Community Foundations exist to cultivate the power of giving within their communities, support long-term transformation, and help ensure all residents thrive.
“We’re excited to see this space transformed with state-of-the-art technologies that reflect the future of healthcare,” added Carey. “Support from partners like the Gladwin and Clare Community Foundations truly strengthens our mission and highlights the close-knit collaboration that makes this region so special.”
