As part of its efforts to support higher education and expanding opportunities for students, Bridge Capital recently donated $6,000 in cash and prizes to Northern Marianas College. The company\u2019s donation was made in support of NMC Foundation\u2019s upcoming golf open in March 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cBridge Capital is proud to be a part of the effort that helps NMC provide quality higher education to the CNMI,\u201d Bridge Capital vice president Bart Jackson said. \u201cWe encourage other companies and organizations in the Commonwealth to do the same.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the first time, NMC\u2019s tournament will be a two-day event and will be held on March 18 and 19, 2023, on the east and west courses of the LaoLao Bay Golf and Resort. The tournament fee for the 2023 golf open is $250.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe success of NMC Foundation\u2019s golf tournaments is largely due to the generosity and involvement of businesses like Bridge Capital,\u201d NMC Foundation Board chair Ben Babauta said. \u201cWe are greatly appreciative of their donation this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

The tournament, which is the signature event of the NMC Foundation, aims to raise funds for the college for its rebuilding and reconstruction efforts. Despite the devastation and destruction of Super Typhoon Soudelor and Yutu, the college has been aggressively seeking funds from all available sources to rebuild classrooms, offices, labs, and workforce spaces for the CNMI community. The foundation is seeking the CNMI private sector\u2019s support through fundraising events like the golf tournament.<\/p>\n

Interested companies and individuals who would like to help the college with its rebuilding efforts can donate educational tax credit, cash, or in-kind contributions by visiting www.marianas.edu\/golf or by contacting NMC Foundation Coordinator Carla Sablan at carla.sablan@marianas.edu<\/a> or (670) 237-6780.<\/p>\n
