On November 1, friends of New College and distinguished alums gathered on the Bayfront behind College Hall for the 40th annual Clambake, the College’s signature fundraising event. This year’s Clambake netted over $350,000 for student scholarships, besting last year’s event by more than $100,000. The total reflected sponsorships and individual tickets, in addition to proceeds from a live auction and paddle raise (led by auctioneer Michael Klauber) for Novo Collegiate scholarships.
“Thank you, everyone, for making this year’s Clambake such a success,” said MaryAnne Young, executive director of the New College Foundation. “Together, our community friends and alums rallied behind our goal of raising more money for scholarships than ever before. You made it happen!”
Foundation Executive Director Young noted donors gave more than $1 million for student scholarships during the most recent fiscal year.
