The Lenoir Community College Foundation is excited to welcome Union Bank of Kinston as a Bachelor Sponsor of this year’s 18th annual LCC Golf Classic. This event has raised more than $500,000 toward student scholarships at LCC since its inception, and Union Bank has been a consistent supporter for the past several years. Nearly 130 golfers played in the tournament last year, and the Foundation is expecting an even better attendance this year.  

The LCC Golf Classic is taking place Thursday, October 10, at the Kinston Country Club. This tournament is the largest fundraiser of the year for the LCC Foundation and helps support the general scholarship fund. Through events like the LCC Golf Classic, the LCC Foundation funded and awarded 200 scholarships last year.

Piggly Wiggly Fresh Buy, Massey Toyota, Spirit Aerosystems, West Pharmaceutical, The Free Press, Neuse News, WRNS, and numerous other local companies are all sponsors of this year’s event. Thanks to the monetary support of generous donors, the LCC Foundation is able to support hundreds of students with help paying for tuition, books and emergency loans.
