The Berkeley College Foundation welcomed a record 105 golfers to the Basking Ridge Country Club recently for the foundation’s 6th annual golf outing that supports student scholarships.
Since the inaugural golf outing was launched in 2017, the event has made it possible for the nonprofit foundation to award $184,000 in need-based scholarships to 48 students. The generosity of supporters this year enabled the foundation to award five additional scholarships to Berkeley College students.
“The Berkeley College Foundation is grateful for the community and business leaders, sponsors, and volunteers who continue to support the Foundation in its mission,” said Ellen Zitis, executive director of the Berkeley College Foundation.
“The speeches at this year’s golf outing illustrated the enduring connections our alumni have with Berkeley College, and the ways foundation scholarships have had a tangible impact on the recipients’ academic achievements and future career success,” Zitis said.
