The Northeast Texas Community College Foundation recently received a $15,000 donation from Weldon and Jo Ann Miller of Mount Pleasant. Additionally, NTCC received a $10,000 donation from Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. in honor of Weldon Miller for his many years of dedicated service to Guaranty Bank & Trust and Guaranty Bancshares, Inc.
Combined, the funds will be used to create an endowed scholarship in the Work4College Program at NTCC. An additional grant opportunity procured by the NTCC Foundation will result in the endowed scholarship money being matched dollar-for-dollar for a total scholarship impact of $50,000.
“We are so grateful to the Millers and Guaranty Bancshares for this very impactful gift. As an endowment, this scholarship fund will continue to help students for many, many years to come,” Dr. Jonathan McCullough, NTCC Executive Vice President for Advancement, said.
The Work4College Program is currently accepting applications for Summer 2020. If you know students who could benefit from participating, please have them visit www.work4college.com for more information or to get an application. The deadline to apply is April 15.
