A celebration of generosity, student achievement, and the life-changing impact of educational opportunity.
Each year, the Blue Ridge Community College Educational Foundation hosts the Scholarship Appreciation Luncheon to bring together scholarship recipients, donors, community partners, and College leaders in celebration of the lives changed through philanthropy. More than a luncheon, this annual tradition provides an opportunity for donors to see the lasting impact of their generosity while students have the chance to personally express their gratitude.

Scholarships create opportunities that can transform a student’s education, career, and future. Watch the video presented at the 2026 Scholarship Appreciation Luncheon to hear what this support means to Blue Ridge students.
This annual luncheon celebrates the generosity of scholarship donors and the achievements of Blue Ridge Community College students. Each year, recipients, donors, College leadership, and community partners come together to share stories, build connections, and recognize the opportunities made possible through philanthropy.
