Members of the community and representatives from Ogeechee Technical College will be seen all around Bulloch County on Tuesday as part of the college’s annual iGot (I Give to Ogeechee Tech) campaign.

The iGot campaign raises funds for the Ogeechee Technical College Foundation and benefits OTC in numerous ways. Student scholarships, emergency funds for students, equipment leases and purchases for academic programs, staff development activities, and other vital support for the college is provided through the generosity of the Foundation’s donors, said Barry Turner, OTC’s vice president for College Advancement. 

The 2015 iGot campaign set a record when it raised $352,748, topping the $311,183 raised in 2014 and the $304,571 in donations in 2013.

Local volunteers will canvas Bulloch County on March 22, offering the opportunity for businesses and individuals to support Ogeechee Tech through contributions to the Foundation.  Monetary and in-kind support are appreciated, said Dr. Steve Healy, Ogeechee Technical College Foundation board president. 

“Ogeechee Tech is vital to the economic vitality of this area, and to the quality of life of our citizens, and I hope everyone feels a conviction to support the Foundation in helping Ogeechee Tech,” Healy said.  

Anyone who wants to ensure their name is on the list to be contacted may call the Ogeechee Technical College Foundation office at (912) 688-6098.
