Aug. 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Make A Difference Foundation, Inc (MADF), www.madf.org, returns to the Westin Atlanta Airport Hotel, 4736 Best Road, Atlanta Georgia, for the 2011 Charlotte Lemons Annual Student Scholarship (C.L.A.S.S.) Awards and Benefit Dinner which will be held on October 22, 2011. Along with recognizing this year’s six scholarship recipients, proceeds from the event benefit future scholarships and other MADF programs.  

The Charlotte Lemons Annual Scholarship (C.L.A.S.S.) Award is a need based scholarship which awards $1000 educational grants to graduating high school seniors throughout the state of Georgia and Florida.  This scholarship is intended to give students in need of financial assistance the opportunity to further their education at a two-year or four-year college or technical institution.  Since 2004, MADF has awarded over $40,000 in C.L.A.S.S. Awards.    

“This event is important and I personally look forward to it each year”, states MADF Chairman Donovan R. Quary Sr., “not only because it allows us to publicly recognize the achievements our recipients, but it also gives us the opportunity to personally thank our many faithful supporters”.   The semi-formal event is centered around the highly popular Casino Royal Theme and will feature a five star cuisine, silent auction, special door prizes, cash bar, and live entertainment by one of Atlanta’s hottest bands – The Infinity Band.  Tickets for the 2011 C.L.A.S.S. Awards and Benefit Dinner are available to the public and can be purchased online at www.madf.org.  Ticket prices are $75 per person or $550 per table of eight.  Sponsorship opportunities are also still available.  For further information please contact Ms. Deshedra Lanier at 770.339.0849 or via e-mail at Deshedra@madf.org.
