The 43rd annual Cloud County Community College Foundation Scholarship Auction, on Saturday, April 20, raised more than $104,000.
The retro summer camp themed event, “Camp Cloud,” saw attendees bid on silent and live auction items to raise money for the Foundation’s scholarship fund. All funds raised during the evening go directly to the General Scholarship Fund, making Cloud County an option for many students who otherwise might not be able to attend college.
“The 43rd annual auction was a huge success thanks to the generous donors and attendees,” said Heather Gennette, Foundation Executive Director. “This remarkable support ensures that more students than ever will have the opportunity to pursue their dreams at Cloud County Community College.
“The auction only happens with the help of a great team of volunteers and amazing staff. The dedication and time these individuals put toward the event is simply incredible!”
In the history of the auction, the event has raised more than $1.2 million toward student scholarships.
