The Wallace State Community College Student Investment Luncheon and Auction, presented by the Wallace State Future Foundation, was an inspiring celebration of community support and student success. Held at Traditions Bank Arena, the 21st annual event brought together more than 600 guests for a delicious catered meal, silent, live, and online auctions, and personal stories from scholarship recipients who helped serve and share their gratitude. Thanks to the generosity of attendees, sponsors, and donors, the luncheon raised a record-breaking $416,161 to fund scholarships that help Wallace State students pursue their academic and career goals. The event not only showcased the power of collective investment in education but also highlighted new endowed scholarships and the deep impact of community partnership in transforming lives.
