State of the College
Santa Fe College thanks those who were able to attend the 2022 State of the College Luncheon at the Charley Johns Conference Center in Starke. Details on the 2023 luncheon will be announced at a later date.
Women of Distinction Luncheon
Details for the 2024 luncheon date! will be announced soon. Nominations will open in fall 2023.
The Santa Fe College Women of Distinction and Women of Promise has recognized more than 200 outstanding women in Alachua and Bradford Counties. The award was created by the Women's History Committee at SF in 1987.
In 2014, the Women of Distinction honorees began raising funds to establish the first Woman of Distinction Scholarship fund. The first award was given for the 2015-16 academic year. With your support, through the SF Women of Distinction Scholarship, we have raised over $220,000 to endow four scholarships designed to enable women to achieve their academic goals without the financial burden which might inhibit the pursuit of their dreams for independence.
Our 2022 goal was to complete a fifth scholarship totaling an endowment of $250,000 to support and mentor women in perpetuity. Updates about the scholarship fund-raising goal will be announced at the luncheon in March 2023.
