Gillette College Foundation named Beneficiary of Revocable TrustYour gifts make an enormous impact on the lives of the students at Gillette College. Earlier this year, the Gillette College Foundation was the beneficiary of a revocable trust that was established by a long time Campbell County resident. With this gift, the Foundation was able to complete its fundraising campaign for the Rodeo/Ag Complex and move forward with the construction of the facility. His generosity has ensured that our Ag and Rodeo programs will flourish and continue for many years to come.
