American International College (AIC) will host its 13th annual President’s Cup Golf Outing on Friday, June 18 at Wintonbury Hills Golf Club in Bloomfield, Conn. The co-chairs for the event are AIC board of trustees member Gale Kirkwood and former board of trustees member Stephen Davis. Proceeds from registrations and sponsorships directly benefit AIC scholarship programs, which are essential in the college’s support of students and future alumni.

Since the President’s Cup Golf Outing began in 2007, the tournament has raised more than $500,000 toward scholarships for deserving students. Nearly all of AIC’s undergraduate students receive financial aid from the college and other sources. Despite these resources, some students still struggle to pay for their education and graduate in a timely manner. Privately funded scholarships represent an investment in the future success of students who look to AIC to further their education, and for an opportunity to achieve a degree in a diverse and welcoming campus community.
