Founders Gala

This year’s Founders Gala will be held on November 5, 2022, in the Kent Student Center Ballroom to celebrate the power philanthropy has to change our students’ lives and to further our collective goal of making their futures Forever Brighter.

During the Founders Gala, we will formally recognize our most generous benefactors and showcase how Kent State University students, faculty and programs benefit from their philanthropy. This special evening will include a reception, dinner and program where guests will have a chance to meet our best and brightest Founders Scholars students who will share their incredible passion, dedication and commitment to making a difference in our community.
