A Record-Setting Success at the MCC Foundation's 28th Annual Gold Star Gala presented by M&T Bank!
Every year, the Annual Gold Star Gala presented by M&T Bank brings together our incredible community for an especially meaningful night. With a Formula 1 and Monaco Grand Prix theme, guests arrived ready to race in celebration of academic excellence at Monroe Community College.
With enrollment and graduation rates on the rise at MCC, investing in student success is more important than ever. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we raised a record-setting $400,000 (net) to fuel scholarships and drive students forward.
We are truly grateful for the College community’s support every step of the way. We would like to thank the teams in Facilities, Central Receiving/Shipping, Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management, the Visual and Performing Arts Department, Theatre Arts, Campus Events, and Printing Services. Our student speaker, musicians, paparazzi, bakers, and volunteers were also truly amazing!
We are deeply grateful to everyone who showed up. Because of you, MCC students have a pole position on the grid.
