Sussex County Community College Foundation receives $10,000 donation from Provident Bank
NEWTON, NJ (Sussex County) – The Sussex County Community College Foundation on Wednesday received a $10,000 donation from Provident Bank to support the College’s Theater Arts program.
This contribution enabled the purchase of a new, larger shed for the Theater program.
In previous years, theater equipment, props, and other items to support the annual theater performances were scattered across various backstage areas, hallways, and closets without a dedicated central storage space.
“Having a centralized space to store our theater props, furniture, and costumes is essential to the success of our program,” said Theater Liaison Allison Ognibene. “It allows us to efficiently store, use, and repurpose items for multiple productions.”
This donation from Provident Bank will significantly and directly impact the students currently enrolled in the theater arts program. A well-organized storage system enhances the program’s efficiency, and this new storage solution will play an important role in its future.
“We weren’t expecting to acquire such a large shed, but after recognizing the pressing need within the program, Provident Bank stepped in generously to support this important cause,” stated President Connolly. “Their timely and substantial contribution ensures that we can meet the demand effectively and continue to serve our community with excellence.”
The Theater Arts program hosts a variety of large—and small-scale productions throughout the year, showcasing a diverse range of performances. These productions are open to the entire community, providing an accessible and local opportunity to experience the creativity and talent of our students.
Provident Bank and Sussex County Community College have enjoyed a long-standing partnership that continues to benefit the community.
