Dear Titan

T
his edition highlights our wonderful friends at Boniface-Hiers Automotive Group.
A.J. Hiers, the company’s President and CEO, presented a $50,000 donation in 2016 for
student scholarships
and has committed to another $50,000 for 2017.
“This donation will go a long way in helping students achieve their dream of a college
education and launching great careers,” said Dr. Jim Richey, President of Eastern Florida
State College. “I cannot thank Boniface-Hiers enough for their generosity and the
strong support they are showing the College as we continue offering students new
degrees and opening doors they might not have thought possible.”
Mr. Hiers stated, “It is truly an honor for the Boniface Hiers Automotive Group to be able
to donate financially to Eastern Florida State College. Our hope is that the scholarship
funds will be made available to deserving students, helping them turn their dream of a
college education and eventually a wonderful career into reality.”
Boniface-Hiers Automotive Group owns and operates five dealerships throughout
Brevard County, providing sales and service for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram Trucks,
Mazda, Kia and Infiniti automobiles as well as Honda motorcycles and ATVs. To receive

Thank you A.J. Hiers and Boniface-Hiers Automotive Group for being a part of the
EFSC Foundation family! We are grateful for our wonderful donors!
Summer may
slow down for our
students at EFSC,
but the Foundation
remains busy raising
money for student
scholarships. Our
number one goal is to secure funds
to help meet our students’ financial
needs. We count on YOU - the support
of our Alumni, local businesses and Titan
friends - to help students realize their
career goals.
You may have read that the Florida State
Legislature has made dramatic budget
cuts to the Florida College System of
which EFSC is a member. So, now more
than ever, we need your support. The
EFSC Foundation also offers Endowed
Faculty Chair awards to attract and retain
excellent faculty. If you are interested
in supporting student scholarships or
endowed faculty chairs, please contact
our offices at 321-433-7055.
Enjoy the lazy days of summer!
