A Night to Remember:
2025 Education Celebration
Raises Over $200,000 for NAFC Schools
The NAFC Education Foundation’s 14th annual Education Celebration Gala was an evening filled with gratitude, generosity, and community spirit. The event brought together educators, alumni, business leaders, and supporters, all committed to making a lasting impact on our schools.
We are thrilled to share that—thanks to the unwavering support of our donors, sponsors, and attendees—we have once again surpassed $200,000 in funds raised to support vital initiatives for NAFC students and teachers.
These funds directly support impactful programs such as:
- Great Classroom Grants – empowering teachers with resources to bring innovative ideas to life
- Mental Health Grants – providing students with the support they need to thrive
- The Dolly Parton Imagination Library – fostering early childhood literacy
- Blessings in a Backpack – ensuring students have food security over the weekends
-
Junior Achievement – equipping students with financial literacy and career skills
An Evening of Celebration and Support
Guests enjoyed an unforgettable evening featuring a lively auction, a delicious dinner, and incredible entertainment from the Juice Box Heroes. We also took a moment to reflect on 20 years of impact that the NAFC Education Foundation has had in our community.
