Celebration of Achievement 2011
On Tuesday, May 10, 2011, over 450 guests joined Buffalo Prep at Kleinhans Music Hall to celebrate our 18th Celebration of Achievement, an annual event recognizing and honoring our graduating seniors and key supporters.
Buffalo Prep received a remarkable amount of support from local corporations, foundations, individuals and partner schools. Over $200,000 was raised which will greatly support our programs and mission to provide opportunities of a lifetime for under-represented, economically disadvantaged students.
All of this would not have been possible without the support of our dedicated sponsors: Presenting Sponsor: M&T Bank; Event Sponsors: BlueCross BlueShield of WNY, HSBC Bank USA, First Niagara Financial Group ; Program Sponsor: U-C Coatings Corporation; Special Honors Sponsors: The Buffalo Sabres, , Independent Health, Kaleida Health, LP Ciminelli, Inc., MorganStanley SmithBarney, Palladian Health, University at Buffalo and many more!
This year, Buffalo Prep was most pleased to honor First Niagara for the time, energy and financial support they have invested in Buffalo Prep. The investment that First Niagara has made and continues to make to Buffalo Prep and its hardworking and deserving young people will continue to have a profound impact in our community.
Buffalo Prep's graduating class was honored for their hard work, dedication and commitment to education. Our seniors will be attending top-rated colleges and universities including: Allegheny College, Barnard College, Buffalo State College, Canisius College, Carnegie Mellon University, Daemen College, Fashion Institute of Technology, Georgetown University, Hilbert College, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Niagara University, Rochester Institute of Technology, Ryerson University in Ontario, St. John Fisher College, University at Buffalo, University of Mount Union, University of North Carolina Charlotte, and Xavier University of Louisiana.
