INA, Ill. (March 3, 2023) —On February 28, the Rend Lake College Foundation hosted the 32nd Annual Scholarship Reception at the RLC Event Center, commemorating and displaying all the scholarships awarded. Attendees included scholarship recipients, generous donors, and representatives of the scholarship programs. The Foundation proudly granted over 230 scholarships to deserving Rend Lake College students, in a successful display of its commitment to higher education.

Scholarship recipients and donors at Rend Lake College's 32nd Annual Foundation Scholarship Reception celebrating the transformative power of scholarships on education and the future.

The reception presented a unique occasion for scholarship recipients to engage with their donors and scholarship representatives, providing them an opportunity to express their gratitude and to communicate their educational and career goals.
