Gala Sponsorship Opportunities
On behalf of the Hudson Valley Community College Foundation, we invite you to join us for the 2026 Inauguration Gala on Thursday, Oct. 15, 2026, at the historic Franklin Plaza in Troy, New York.
As the Foundation's premier annual fundraising event, the Gala generates vital support for student scholarships, instructional equipment and innovative academic initiatives that prepare our students for the workforce of tomorrow.
This year, we are especially proud to celebrate the inauguration of Dr. Michael Brophy as Hudson Valley Community College's eighth president. We invite you to become a sponsor and join fellow alumni, business leaders, community partners and friends of the college in marking this milestone while investing in student success and the future of our region.
