The Foundation for Florida Gateway College has announced its 3rd Annual Giving Day Experience Auction, set to open on Monday, November 11, 2025, and close on Tuesday, November 18, 2025. The goal is to raise $140,001 to support scholarships, student programs, and campus initiatives, providing the community with a meaningful opportunity to invest in student success.
The Foundation invites alumni, friends, and supporters to take three impactful actions: give directly to the Foundation at www.fgc.edu/give, bid on exclusive experiences in the online auction at atfgc.winningbidder.com/event, or establish a new endowment fund. Thanks to generous matching opportunities, any general scholarship or general vocational scholarship endowment starting at $12,500 will be matched dollar-for-dollar, instantly becoming a $25,000 fund. Many donors choose to honor or memorialize loved ones through these meaningful gifts.
“We believe students should have every opportunity to attend Florida Gateway College regardless of their financial situation,” said Rebecca Golden, Director of Resource Development at the Foundation. “So we build relationships with YOU, with companies, with anyone who shares the passion for helping Florida Gateway College students.”
This year's auction features a diverse array of exciting items, including a flight experience with a military fighter pilot in a vintage warbird aircraft, luxurious travel vacation packages at local and international destinations, an Ultimate Pro Sports Fan Getaway package, and handcrafted goods, among others.
