Thank You for Joining Us at the Gala at the Great Hall
Thank you to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable evening at the Gala at the Great Hall. Your presence and generosity helped make this year’s celebration truly extraordinary as we came together to honor Monmouth University’s mission and the remarkable community that sustains it.
Together, we highlighted the vital impact of the Access Fund, a scholarship fund that provides financial support to current students with demonstrated, unmet need. Your support helps ensure that a Monmouth education remains within reach for deserving students, regardless of their financial circumstances.
