Released by Burlington County College
On Friday, Nov. 16, the Burlington County College (BCC) Foundation hopes to raise more than $100,000 for book and tuition scholarships to help students in need achieve their college dreams.
The BCC Foundation’s 24th annual Holiday Auction will bring together donors, the BCC community and public for an evening of food and fun for a good cause. Whitesell Construction Co., Inc. will be honored for their decades-long support of the BCC Foundation and the economic vibrancy of Burlington County.
The event includes hors d’oeuvres, dinner, an open-bar, and hundreds of gifts and prizes, which are up for bid during the lucky draw, silent and live auctions. Items in the auctions include vacations to Jamaica, tickets to Philadelphia Phillies games, fine jewelry, gift certificates to restaurants and area attractions, and much more.
In the last year, the Burlington County College (BCC) Foundation has awarded deserving BCC students a total of 485 scholarships, a record-number, worth more than $432,000.
The BCC Foundation hopes to be able to award even more scholarships through the support of those attending the auction this year.
The 24th Holiday Auction begins at 6 p.m. at The Westin, 555 Fellowship Road, Mt. Laurel.
Tickets are $100 and can be purchased online at www.bccfoundation.net, or by calling Brittany Quintana at the BCC Foundation Office at (856) 222–9311 ext. 2540.
