The West Georgia Technical College Foundation major gifts campaign entitled “Invest in the Next Generation”, has come to a close. The campaign, which was created in June 2007, specifically sought to raise funds to build a new Coweta County Campus; strengthen the Student Scholarship and Grant Fund; create a Healthcare Endowment; and to enhance the Adult Education and Literacy program with an endowment. The initial goal at the start of the campaign was $8 million. The Foundation has exceeded that goal, raising over $11.4 million.
