E. Kent Damon Lifetime Giving Society
The late E. Kent Damon, MCC trustee emeritus and director emeritus of the MCC Foundation, was instrumental in establishing the MCC Foundation and believed that private philanthropy was imperative to the college’s future. In addition to being the namesake for MCC’s Damon City Campus, Mr. Damon is remembered through this giving society that recognizes the cumulative support of the MCC Foundation over a donor’s lifetime. The society recognizes donors at three giving levels.
