The North Central Missouri College Scholarship Reception, honoring 2024-2025 scholarship recipients, will be held on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, in the Jeanette Hoffman Robison Auditorium in the Ketcham Community Center. This annual event, hosted by the North Central Missouri College Foundation, highlights Foundation scholarship recipients and all NCMC institutional scholarship recipients for the 2024-2025 academic year.
“This event brings students, donors, family, friends, and staff together to celebrate continuing education and showcases the impact of philanthropy on our organization, bringing NCMC’s mission to life,” commented NCMC Scholarship Coordinator Kristi Varner. “The Foundation is honored to be able to increase the number of endowed scholarships awarded to NCMC students. Enrollment is at a record high for the second straight year, and this event highlights the continued need for scholarships and the impact they have on students.”
Dr. Mitch Holder, Dean of Instruction, will emcee the event this year, which will feature student speakers Cooper Berry, Maysville, MO; Lute Vaiangina, Eua Tonga; and Regina Williams, St. Joseph, MO. Alumna and faculty member Cassie Cordray will speak about the Teacher Education Scholarship and the impact that NCMC has had on her life.
Light appetizers will be served, and recipients will be able to meet and take pictures with their scholarship donor representatives. Doors open at 3:00 p.m. for the meet-and-greet, and the program starts at 3:30 p.m. This event will also be live-streamed through www.piratesdigitalmedia.com.
