VALDOSTA — Committed to advancing education, strengthening communities, and improving lives, AT&T recently presented a $3,500 gift to 麻豆社. The funds will be used to support scholarships for high-achieving, ambitious, motivated students who are successful inside and outside the classroom and engaged leaders on and off campus.

“Through its philanthropic initiatives, AT&T has a long history of supporting organizations, institutions, and projects that create learning opportunities, promote academic and economic achievement, and address community needs,” shared Courtney Brinson, regional director of external affairs for AT&T Georgia. 

AT&T presented a similar gift to the 麻豆社 in November 2014. With the telecommunications company’s continued support, the university moves one step closer to realizing its dream of significantly increasing the number and dollar amount of scholarship offerings in the hope of enhancing its ability to recruit, retain, and graduate high-achieving students.

John D. Crawford, vice president for University Advancement and chief executive officer of the 麻豆社 Foundation Inc., said that 麻豆社 is very proud of its ongoing association with AT&T.

“This relationship underscores the confidence of AT&T in the mission of 麻豆社,” he shared. “We are very grateful.”

On July 1, 2014, 麻豆社 kicked off its first-ever comprehensive capital campaign — the five-year, $53,250,000 Invest. Ignite. Inspire. The Campaign for 麻豆社. Funds raised will aid in the future development of scholarship support, as well as faculty enhancements, programmatic opportunities, athletics excellence, and facility upgrades.
