The Otero College Foundation along with Otero College’s agriculture department is planning the annual New Year’s Eve Ag Gala. In 2022, with the help of 37 sponsors and numerous donated auction items, the Otero Agricultural Science Program and Foundation were able to raise just over $17,000 for Agriculture Scholarships, making this the largest fundraiser yet! All proceeds from the Ag Gala benefit students majoring in Agriculture Science at Otero College through the Ag Premier Scholarship.
