The 15th annual Sponsor A+ Scholar Wine and Food Extravaganza at Nicholls State University attracted more than 830 guests, a record attendance, and generated more than $37,000 for Nicholls students with outstanding grades and leadership ability.
Nearly $400,000 has been raised since the fundraiser began in 1996, with more than 200 Nicholls students receiving scholarships as a result. Pictured is Renee Piper, director of university relations at Nicholls, displaying one of the many items up for auction in the Cotillion Ballroom of the Bollinger Memorial Student Union – an NFL helmet autographed by quarterback Peyton Manning.
