COCC’s Annual Fundraiser Moves From Meal to Menu
Its venue might be virtual this year, but the Central Oregon Community College (COCC) Foundation’s annual scholarship fundraising event now in its 43rd year is as committed as ever to removing financial barriers to education for students across the region. Fondly and widely known in the community as “Meal of the Year,” the event was reimagined this year due to the pandemic.
Now through March 31, or until items are sold out, the Menu of the Year (renamed for this year’s event) is creatively raising funds for scholarships and community members can visit menuoftheyear.org to learn more. Items include gourmet meal kits paired with a COCC chef-led virtual cooking demonstration, wine-tasting packages and wine “grabs” from a 100-bottle curated collection. This year’s raffle offers a chance to win a $15,000 home improvement project from Webfoot Painting with the purchase of one or more $50 raffle tickets.
