Chocolate Affair
Since 2001, the Delta College Foundation has hosted A "Possible Dream" Fundraiser: A Chocolate Affair, an annual event held in November to fund Delta College's Possible Dream Program. This event is attended by hundreds of tri-county professionals each year. This year's event will take place on November 13 at the Valley Plaza in Midland.
New This Year
Great New Location – Delta College is an anchor in Bay, Saginaw and Midland Counties. Now this event – voted the #1 Charity Event – is going regional too by moving to the Valley Plaza in Midland!
Patron V.I.P. Reception – Beat the crowd by arriving early for this white glove gathering. Easy parking will put you up front for the red carpet entrance and premium menu selections. Then continue on to the main event.
Local Chocolate Pastry Chefs – Our great dessert selection will be even sweeter this year, when we’re joined by three fabulous bakeries from the region, along with their pastry chefs:
Petit Four Pastry, Bay County
Patisserie, Saginaw County
Linda Lewis, Midland County
Artwork Raffle – Attending the Patron Reception will automatically put you in a raffle drawing for great artwork by talented Delta College faculty and supporters including: Larry Butcher, Randy Crawford, Gina Dominique, John McCormick, Michelle McCormick, Linda Menger, Mark Piotrowski and Natalie Theis.
Still the Same – The top quality you’ve come to expect, the people you’ll want to meet and the #1 cause that’s worth supporting!
Last year’s Chocolate Affair netted a profit of $138,161, a nearly 12 percent increase over last year's event, which netted $122,088. Thank you to all who participated and helped make this event a tremendous success!
