<b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This gala is a celebration of all the hard work, study, and investment that has gone into attaining your TWU degree. It will not only be a time to reflect on the special friendships and acquaintances you have created along the journey, but also a time to perhaps forge new relationships. This gala is also at heart a fund raising event for the Alice Collier Clark Scholarship. This scholarship has benefited students who have poured themselves into investing towards a graduate degree at TWU, and for some reason or misfortune were not able to continue due to financial circumstances. This scholarship allows the dream of a completed TWU graduate degree to continue! It is in part, a stamp in their "Passport to Your Future!" Ticket sales and auction proceeds will benefit the Alice Collier Clark Scholarship.</b>Dwight Chandlerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17875516407527957308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1021590840992106167.post-32939902153806945002010-01-21T15:28:00.000-08:002010-03-22T23:14:14.133-07:00Auction Sales and Donations<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Auction sales the night of the Gala and non-tax deductible contributions can be made here online with the Paypal buttons to the right, directly from Gala Team members, or by mail.</b></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Gala Team members:</b></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Lois Bair, Dwight Chandler, Cheryl Edwards, Jonathan Overton, Parminder </b><b>Sokhi</b><b>, Tomieka Polk, Susan Schmidt, Jamye Spiller Johnson, and Connie Staudt.</b></div><b style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Make checks payable to <span style="font-size: large;">Connie Staudt</span> when making an auction purchase/donation in person.</b><br />
