DeJardin Family Endowment

Service to community is a hallmark of the Les DeJardin Family of West Linn. Les DeJardin set the standard, supporting his community through good business and good citizenship. Carol DeJardin continued her father’s tradition of community service when she took over the family business following Les’ death. Carol joined the CCC Foundation Board of Directors, serving a leadership role in the college’s $15 million endowment campaign in 2000.

Like the Banyan Tree, CCC’s symbol of organizational strength, the DeJardin Endowment will continue to grow new branches that will carry on the family’s spirit of community service. The endowment supports Health Sciences programs and students, enabling generations to make a difference in their community and world.
