Ogden-Weber Technical College Foundation’s mission is to support students by raising funds to invest in student success programs, that promote technical training completion and job placement with a sustainable wage.
The work is accomplished by partnering with like-hearted donors to provide scholarships for low-moderate-income and academically-talented students, equipment to enhance student learning, and support to programs.
Education changes everything. The foundation believes the connection between education and prosperity is direct and powerful.
Education provides individual opportunity, social vitality, and economic stability— critical to improve the lives of youth, adults, and families.
Few investments yield as high a return as post-secondary education. It is the key to moving people out of poverty and into jobs with sustainable wages.
Last year, over $300,000 was raised for scholarships, equipment and student success programs. More than 200 individuals, foundations, corporations, college employees and board members invested generously to elevate student success.
Associate Vice President for College Advancement
Experience is everything, and the benefits of a technical college education go beyond economics. Higher education is a key element of personal growth and social progress. College has never mattered more than it does right now. It is both a window and a door, a view of the possible, and a way to make it real. Youth and adults must be better prepared for today’s more technical jobs because we can’t afford to leave anyone behind.
