Cape Fear Italian Festival provides for Brunswick Community College students

Students at Brunswick Community College will get a hand with their education thanks to your love for Italian-American culture.

Tuesday, the Cape Fear Italian Festival executive committee, including WWAY’s Kevin Wuzzardo and Steve Rondinaro, donated $3,000 from last month’s festival in Leland to the Brunswick Community College Foundation. The money will go toward student scholarships.

BCC president Steve Greiner said it will be money well spent. “The typical student at Brunswick Community College is one of financial need. We have over 80 percent of our students have demonstrated a financial need. So as you see, a check like this would be of great assistance.”

Work is already underway for the second annual Cape Fear Italian Festival scheduled for September 24th and 25th of next year.
