Brookdale’s 2026 Scholarship Bash
The Brookdale Community College Foundation invites the community to A Night with the Stars: Where Futures Shine on Friday, April 24, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at Branches in West Long Branch. The evening will bring together friends and champions of Brookdale to celebrate generosity and invest in the success of students across our community.
Brookdale is the #1 community college in New Jersey and ranks in the top 10% of community colleges nationally. Its Cyber Defense and Nursing programs are designated Centers of Excellence by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the National League for Nursing. With 130 nurses graduating annually, many of us, or our loved ones, will benefit from their care at some point. Yet more than 50% of Brookdale students rely on financial aid.
“We hope the community will join us for a wonderful evening that celebrates Brookdale students and helps ensure their futures continue to shine,” said 2026 Scholarship Bash Co-Chairs Carol Stillwell, Candy Langan-Sattenspiel, and Tracey Abby-White.
Guests will enjoy an elegant evening featuring dinner, dancing, an open bar, and both live and silent auctions, all in celebration of the bright futures made possible through scholarship support. Proceeds from the evening directly fund scholarships that remove financial barriers and help more Brookdale students pursue and complete their academic goals.
Join us for a night where generosity shines and futures rise.

Green Day’s American Idiot is a high-octane rock opera that follows three lifelong friends—Johnny, Tunny, and Will—as they search for meaning in a post-9/11 world. Fueled by punk rebellion, heartbreak, and the desire to break free, this Tony Award–winning musical features hit songs from Green Day’s landmark album American Idiot and beyond, including: “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” “21 Guns,” “Holiday,” and “Jesus of Suburbia.” The result is an electrifying theatrical experience that captures the rage, love, and restlessness of a generation.Direction by DJ Brown Musical Direction by Jeff Brown Choreography by Amy Carr SkaleckiGeneral Admission Seating Ticket: $30 eachJersey Shore Arts Center, Ocean Grove, NJ More information visit: <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnenaproduction.org%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExUzM2RE5ITlVzUjB1a1oyd3NydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4tQLF3KfgWxWrngV7T-OxJ5veBvcorKuXGZyhHPUbHp1BZVXniraw5rxXFaQ_aem_YicesNYaFbV9L9QOBaN0dQ&amp;h=AT4EZeSlV0a6nNmX03vXl2QuIzeUmRbRViZtZdLnIwl6akDei0JSWZRECs_d3LBbwobTDE3hAkfFzcASHOwrEEd9fF3u2_XCfIUvxvq_sMQhOrThsZiMczyduxuY4vS-MjB-PndaoCsCLrEdPziu5UnXin_rVCghBw&amp;__tn__=q&amp;c[0]=AT6d5M1O7PA028KB3WvlpWIVsYBCAG14SqbowzcwKr6G6K3IRl4e4nTemDW8XYRhKUXIWIIk7V6eWiiMqxJo61b9RBFF9zo6ZaWryvNSaKS2OaA4xbQ3fJZivZToN4UZrI7AG2VjqEiEr1oyXZZXSXqk4dgkQp9346c" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nenaproduction.org</a>
