Our Purpose
The Nighthawks Club was established by the NPC Foundation in order to support the NPC Nighthawk athletic program. Our mission is to raise funds through the support of parents, businesses, and community members to support the academic and athletic endeavors for National Park College student-athletes. The NPC Foundation assists our student-athletes by providing scholarships, facility enhancements, travel expenses, and funds for recruitment of student-athletes.
The NPC Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c) (3) entity.
The first step in joining our Nighthawk Club is by becoming a sponsor. Not only are you supporting our NPC student-athletes in their goals, but each membership level has its own set of perks!
