Spring 2024
Dear Friend of Montgomery College:
As part of our “DOGFISHING FOR MC SCHOLARSHIPS” fundraiser at Gaithersburg’s
Dogfish Head Alehouse restaurant, the Montgomery College Alumni Association will
conduct a silent auction during the event on April 30, 2024.
The day’s proceeds (including 15 percent of all restaurant sales) support our scholarship
program—helping Montgomery College students reach their educational goals.
We invite you or your organization to support our efforts by donating a product or service
to our silent auction. Past auction premiums have included vacation rentals, golf
foursomes, and gift certificates for area businesses, among other popular products.
We’ve found that items valued at $100 or more tend to attract the best responses.
This is a great opportunity to contribute to a worthy cause while building your visibility
among MC alumni and other customers at our event. We will highlight donors and their
contributions in advance promotions, as well as with signage on site at the event. (You
may also wish to announce your support via our social media tag, #dogfishing4MC.)
The Alumni Association operates as a unit of the Montgomery College Foundation.
Should you require it for accounting purposes, our tax ID number is 52-1267008.
If you need any further information, please contact us at (240) 567-7951. We may also
be reached by e-mail at alumni@montgomerycollege.edu. Our alumni volunteers will be
happy to arrange to pick up a donated item from your location at a convenient time.
Thank you for considering our request!
Sincerely,
Lori A. Thomas ’99
Chair, Dogfishing 2024
