Bourbon enthusiasts have the opportunity to win a highly valued bottle while supporting the Lake Land College Foundation and their beneficiaries.  The Foundation is sponsoring a raffle of the Old Rip Van Winkle Collection, and today is the last day to enter.  Proceeds go towards Lake Land students facing financial hardships.  This is just one of many fundraisers the Foundation holds to support their various causes.

Christi Donsbach is the Executive Director For College Advancement at Lake Land College.  She says they have already raised the equivalent of the collection’s value. 

If you are interested in entering, you can do so here. 

Last year, the Lake Land College Foundation began offering sustaining sponsorships to interested businesses and individual donors.  This supplements their golf outings and other annual one-day fundraisers. 

One year into the Community Partner Program, the Foundation raised over a million dollars.  Much of it came from that specific effort.

Donsbach says funds raised through the program go directly to students in need, who can earn the funds via scholarships. 

More information on the Lake Land College Foundation is on their Facebook page and also available by calling (217) 234-5363.
