Shoreline Community College Foundation hosts breakfast to raise scholarship funds for students

Shoreline Community College Foundation will host its 20th Annual Student Success Community Breakfast on November 2. The breakfast is the Foundation’s primary event for raising scholarships and emergency assistance funds for Shoreline students in need. This helps deserving students remove barriers and achieve success in their educational and career goals.

Attendees will enjoy a full hot breakfast while they listen to music from the College’s talented band Funk ‘n Groove. Emceed by Jim Dever from KING5 TV, the event also features several student speakers.

“Hearing the students’ stories and what the scholarships mean to them is always the favorite part of the event,” said Mary Brueggeman, VP of Advancement and Executive Director of the Foundation.

In the 2017-18 school year, the Foundation awarded $149,000 in scholarships and also raises funds for financial emergencies for students which would otherwise result in them having to drop out of school without the assistance.

The breakfast is open to the public and attended by many community members. Tickets are $50 or $500 for a table of 8 and may be purchased online.

Businesses and individuals are also invited to sponsor the event by contacting Mary Brueggeman.
