FMCC Athletic Field Project

Creating a Place Where Dreams Take Root

The Vision: More Than a Field

At Fulton-Montgomery Community College (FMCC), we’ve always believed in the power of education — but we believe just as strongly in the power of place.

That’s why we’re building a state-of-the-art athletic field — not just for our student-athletes, but for our entire community.

This isn’t just a field. It’s a promise of access, equity, and opportunity.

A place where:

  • Students chase their goals — on and off the field
  • Local youth can play and dream
  • Alumni feel pride in their alma mater
  • Families come together to cheer, connect, and celebrate

Project Scope & Progress

Phase I: In Progress

  • $650,000+ already raised through private donations and community support
  • Excavation and groundwork complete
  • Base layers of turf installation underway
  • Final Goal: $750,000+

We’re in the final stretch — and your gift can help us cross the finish line.

Why This Project Matters

In a time when small colleges are often overlooked, FMCC is standing up for:

  • Student access:
    Athletics scholarships open doors for first-generation students
  • Community strength:
    This field will host public events, youth programs, and local leagues
  • Regional pride:
    This project shows we believe in our people and our place

Every donor is helping build something that lasts. Not just turf — but a legacy.
