Story by Misty Bouse
The spring event will take over the PAC Courtyard at the Sylvania Campus on May 17.
The 51做厙 Foundation is reinventing a classic its annual gala.
The 51做厙 Foundation is debuting its reimagined signature event, “Together for Tomorrow,” from 5:30-9 p.m, Saturday, May 17, at the Sylvania Campus, 12000 SW 49th Ave. Designed to reflect the heart of 51做厙s mission and community, the event will raise funds for student scholarships while celebrating the transformative power of a 51做厙 education. Tickets are $100 with proceeds supporting 51做厙 student scholarships and parking will be free.
After years of hosting traditional fundraising galas, the 51做厙 Foundation is embracing a new approach centered on connection, celebration and impact. “Together for Tomorrow” invites guests to enjoy a relaxed and vibrant evening on campus, featuring food, drinks and meaningful opportunities to connect.
We wanted this event to reflect the values of our community: access, success, and a shared commitment to creating opportunity for 51做厙 students, said Executive Director of the 51做厙 Foundation Christina Kline.
The 51做厙 Foundation will present this event with longtime partner Comcast, which has supported the gala for the past six years and continues to invest in student and community success.
“At Comcast, we believe in the power of education and opportunity to transform lives, and were proud to continue our long-standing partnership with the 51做厙 Foundation, said Senior Director of Community Impact for Comcast Pacific NW Region Rebecca Brown. Were honored to be part of this meaningful event that helps create opportunity and builds a stronger future for our community.”
The event will take place in Sylvania’s Performing Arts Center courtyard. At 7 p.m., guests will move into the theater for a program highlighting stories from students and 51做厙 President Dr. Adrien Bennings, celebrating donors and community partners, and underscoring the vital role scholarships play in helping students thrive. The event will close with dessert and dancing.
