Over the years, Essex County College has maintained a proud tradition of excellence throughout Essex County. While our outstanding faculty and staff work hard every day to provide the tools necessary for our students to succeed, there are times when we have called upon you to offer some assistance. This is one of those times, but one that we know you will enjoy.


The Foundation is honored to co-sponsor the College’s 24th annual Essex County College Golf Scholarship Tournament. Once again, this year’s Tournament will be held at the beautiful Maplewood Country Club on Thursday, October 17, 2024. Your generosity and support will help enrich the lives of some truly outstanding students whose only obstacle to success is their lack of adequate financial resources. Our continued goal is to help our most deserving students earn a valuable college education and take the next step toward achieving their dreams. 


Now is the time to sign up for the Tournament, where you can demonstrate your prowess on the links and courts. You can also lend your support in other ways, such as attending the evening reception, donating a prize, or contributing to the Essex County College Foundation Scholarship Fund for the benefit of our students. 


Kindly complete and return the enclosed card by September 27, 2024. Please contact Dr. Leigh M. Bello at 973-877-3484 or bello@essex.edu for any additional information about the Tournament.

Thank you in advance for your generous contribution. We are looking forward to seeing you on October 17, 2024!
