14th Annual Auto Show Gala
Don’t Miss Out On the Route ’59 Roadtrip.
Join us at the Northwood University Auto Show Gala, one of the most anticipated events of the year for Northwood alumni and friends. It’s a fun-filled opportunity to gather, celebrate, raise funds, and reward the hard work of our students.
Northwood University has been driving automotive dreams since 1959, and we plan to continue that journey full speed ahead, with you riding shotgun, for the best road trip of 2024!
For 13 years, the Northwood University Auto Show Gala has fueled scholarships and ignited school spirit. But it’s more than just a fundraiser; it’s a celebration of our incredible alumni, dedicated supporters, and our hardworking students!
Together, we’ve shifted into high gear, raising over $1.5 million for the Town & Campus Scholarship and Alumni Legacy Scholarship funds that empower future generations of industry leaders. These scholarships would not be possible without the unwavering support from YOU! We know that none of this could have happened without our sponsors, donors, and committee members. Year after year, you’ve come through for Northwood students and their futures.
