McAllen, TX (September 30, 2014) – Support high-achieving students from South Texas College while enjoying a star-studded evening of dining and entertainment during the 9th Annual “A Night with the Stars” Valley Scholars fundraiser. The Valley Scholars Program celebrates academic excellence and salutes Doctors Hospital at Renaissance (DHR) and HEB with festivities taking place Thursday, October 9, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Corinthian Banquet & Special Event Center located in Mission, TX. Admission is $50 per person.
“We truly value our business community partners that support the Valley Scholars Program,” said Anahid Petrosian, STC Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs. “Businesses such as DHR and HEB regularly support the program and have made it possible for us to continue providing financial support to many students as they continue their educational journey. The evening will be a fitting tribute to all they have done for our students and region.”
Net proceeds from the event will benefit STC’s Valley Scholars Program Scholarships. The program was founded in 1997 to provide financial assistance, academic support services, mentoring, and leadership development to academically talented and highly motivated students. More than 680 students have participated in the program and have matriculated to either STC’s own bachelor programs or transferred to other universities around the nation.
