'One student at a time' motto surrounded by OTECH students helped

How Your Partnership Changes Lives

The Ogden-Weber Technical College Foundation, lives by a simple yet powerful commitment to students. One student at a time is not just a motto—it is the heartbeat of everything we do. Every scholarship awarded, equipment purchased, and program supported represents a life transformed, a family uplifted, and a community strengthened.

As we reflect on the incredible progress we have made together, we are filled with gratitude for the donors who make this mission possible. Your generosity does not just fund education; it removes barriers and creates pathways for students to pursue technical training. We are deeply thankful for your belief in the power of education to change everything.

We are continually building new community relationships, forging partnerships with like-minded organizations, and working to grow our scholarship fund so that no student is turned away due to financial hardship. Your continued support is essential to this mission.

Thank you for being partners in this vital work and believing that education provides the opportunity our students need to build sustainable careers and brighter futures.
Here are some stories from students whose lives you have positively impacted:

“I am a single mom of a nine month old. I would like to thank my donor for providing me a stepping stone to a career I’ve always dreamed of. I want to be able to support my son in this hard economy, while helping others.”

(Grace M. – CNA Program)

“A scholarship can take a load off my mind by reducing the financial stress of tuition, fees, and books. It frees me up to focus more on my studies and less on working long hours to cover expenses.”

(Destinee M. – Medical Assistant Program)

“This is the first time in years I’ve been hopeful about my future, because now I’ll be able to find a job with the trade skills I’m learning and be able to make enough to support my family.”

(Garry O. – Welding Program)

“I am a hard working individual trying to better my life so my family won’t have to struggle. This scholarship will help me financially so there is less worry about paying the school for my courses and more focus on school.”

(Gabriel M. – Composites Program)

“This scholarship will help me by not having to worry about having enough money to continue my education and not have to pick which bill is more important. It’s a blessing I couldn’t say thank you enough for.”

(Alexis L. – Cosmetology Program)

“This scholarship helps me a lot because I don’t have to stress so much about how to pay for school. I’ve been trying to cover things on my own, but it hasn’t been easy. Now I can focus more on learning and finishing my program without worrying about money all the time.”
