Description
The Fullerton College Foundation presents the Fullerton College President's Gala on Saturday, October 19, 2019, supporting endowed scholarship programs that enable students to achieve their educational goals. Highlighting the evening's fundraising efforts will be a Silent Auction featuring a variety of items followed by a Live Auction opportunity for attendees.
In part, the mission of the College and Foundation is to place an emphasis on preparing students to successfully complete their certificates and programs of study. Many students will transfer to four-year colleges and universities to continue their studies. In addition, the College advances student learning by developing flexible pathways for students from diverse communities seeking educational and career growth designed to become successful learners, responsible leaders and engaged community members.
This year the Foundation awarded over $285,000 in scholarships for Fullerton College Students. Proceeds from the event will be directed towards our scholarship programs and will highlight the Foundation's vision of Investing in Education.
Please join in for an evening of celebration, honoring those in the community who have contributed their talent, time and vision in serving the students.
