This annual fundraising campaign allows OTECH employees, board members, and community partners to contribute directly to student success through scholarship donations.
In the past year, we have seen more need for scholarships and other student support than ever. Your donations enable students to overcome financial barriers and access life-changing educational opportunities. Every penny raised goes to support OTECH students; even just $1 or $2 per pay period combined with other donations can make a huge difference in someone’s life.
Your gift will help more than 300 OTECH students with:
A 2022 study by the Kem C. Gardner Institute found that 31% of OTECH students are economically disadvantaged, more than at any other public college or university in the state. Your support helps students overcome financial barriers while juggling the many additional demands of life.
If you join the Investors’ Circle by making a sustaining pledge, your gift can continue to help students beyond this year. You’ll receive a special thank you gift for your continued investment.
Our 2025 goal is to increase the percentage of employees giving by 5 percentage points, for a total of 50%. The goal for Board of Trustees and Foundation Board members is 100% participation.
