The Emerald Bay Benevolence Foundation’s primary mission is lending a helping hand to those who are unable to care for themselves — including children, individuals with disabilities, and the elderly.

Who We Support
New Textbook Loan Library for TJC West Campus Students: A teacher at TJC West Campus recently shared that many of his students are balancing jobs, school, and family responsibilities — and after paying tuition, they often cannot afford to buy required textbooks right away. As a result, some students must wait until the second week of an 8-week course to purchase books, missing out on up to one-fourth of the course material.
​
To help address this challenge, he proposed starting a library where students can borrow textbooks until they’re able to purchase their own copies. We’re pleased to announce that the Foundation has agreed to fund this effort and help launch a textbook loan library for West Campus students.
​
This initiative will ensure that more students have access to the materials they need from day one, helping them stay on track and succeed in their courses.
