The NIC Foundation was founded in 1977 to encourage private support of North Idaho College. Through contributions and prudent stewardship, Rayelle and her team invests in NIC students, programs, services, and special projects.

Supporting NIC Employee excellence, they have raised over $1.5 million for 376 grants through the NIC Foundation Grant Program to enhance educational excellence and over $235,000 for the NIC Employee Service Award Program to recognize employee excellence. In addition, they have raised over $16.5 million in support of NIC capital projects, land acquisition, technology, and equipment for projects including Ft. Sherman Officers’ Quarters, Molstead Library, Workforce Training Center, Children’s Center expansion, Meyer Health and Sciences Building, and the Parker Technical Education Center.
