GCC Foundation Presents Encore 2022, "A Night in Casablanca"

Batavia, NY (11/09/2022) — On Saturday, November 19, 2022 at 5 pm Genesee Community College Foundation will welcome all guests to its annual Encore Celebration. This year's event theme, "A Night in Casablanca," will embrace the essence of the Academy Award winning feature film. A limited number of tickets are still available at https://gccfoundationinc.org/encore/.

Since its inception, proceeds from Encore directly support student scholarships at Genesee Community College. The College is pleased to announce the return of our Presenting Sponsor, Tompkins Financial Corporation, to Encore 2022. "Tompkins Banking, Insurance and Wealth teams are proud to once again partner with GCC in support of the people and community we serve here in western New York," said David Boyce, President & CEO, Tompkins Insurance Agencies.

Encore co-chairs Robert and Zje Savage have prepared a fun throwback to Rick's Cafe Americain in World War II era French Morocco featuring gourmet food and dessert stations and live music by the "Hanna PK Trio."

There are several opportunities remaining to sponsor the Encore event. These sponsorships are critically important to the scholarships GCC provides its students and are available at several levels this year:

  • Last Plane to Lisbon Dessert Station Sponsor: $2,000
  • Table Sponsor: $1,500
  • Bogey Sponsor: $1,000
  • Ilsa Sponsor: $600
  • Victor Sponsor: $300
  • Platinum Patron Ticket: $100
