Foundation Scholarship Gala
November 7, 2025 - This year's GALA was one of our most successful and largest attended fundraisers to date. We had over 400 in attendance and a very engaged and generous crowd who stepped up and helped raise a lot of money that will be directed to scholarships for our students.
From the delicious Asian dinner, to yummy desserts and premiums wines, to some very nice silent and auction items, the evening was high energy and fun. We are extremely grateful for so many people, businesses, organizations, volunteers, our students, and others who contributed to the success of our event.
Special thanks to the Foundation Board and Special Events Committee, Foundation Coordinator Lisa Meyer, TVCC staff and faculty and our other partners who supported the GALA. Kudos to Tyson Baker and the Baker Auction Company for a job well done. The list of acknowledgements is long and we are grateful and thankful to everyone who participated in this major fundraiser. Thanks to a caring and commitment community who continue to invest in TVCC and the students we serve. Here are a few photos from the big night. As you can see, people were having fun.
Thanks again to everyone for making the 2025 GALA a huge hit. It takes a village and our village is pretty special!

2025 Ontario Chamber Banquet
The 111th Annual Ontario Chamber Banquet was held the evening of Friday, January 10, 2025, to honor several distinguished citizens and other awardees.
The Foundation had the pleasure of decorating the table for Agriculture Business of the Year, which went to the Malheur Experiment Station. Table decorations are judged in different categories and our table won "Most Unique". What was most unique was the "golden" onions we had as table favors that really set our table apart.
Thanks to Coralie at Eastside Florist for turning the real onions into gold! It was a beautiful table and I want to thank Lisa, Caroline and Coralie for making it so unique!
Stuart and the staff at the Experiment Station loved the table! Prudi and Holly were also at Friday's banquet and joined in the photo.
