27th Annual Foundation Gala

The Hudson County Community College Foundation invites you to our 27th Annual Gala on Thursday, December 5 at 6 p.m. The Gala takes place at HCCC’s Culinary Arts Center and will be a truly memorable evening where guests gather to relish in the delicious cuisine and exquisite desserts prepared by our talented HCCC culinary students and staff.

The Foundation is committed to the belief that all Hudson County residents should be afforded the opportunity to acquire a college education and enjoy the lifelong benefits and transformative power of higher education. To make this vision a reality, the HCCC Foundation relies upon the Annual Gala as the Foundation’s largest and most important fundraising event each year.

HCCC serves more at-risk students than any other community college in New Jersey. More than two-thirds of HCCC students recently reported facing issues such as food insecurity, housing insecurity, and even homelessness. Our students come from a variety of traditionally underrepresented backgrounds and many are first-generation college students. The Foundation is laser-focused on removing the barriers to success that these students face, through scholarship funding, paying for books, or even transportation to and from class.

The impact of the festivities will extend far beyond the evening with every dollar raised making a significant positive impact on the lives of HCCC students. We look forward to seeing you at the Gala. Thank you!
