The Northeast Texas Community College Foundation recently received a generous $3,000 donation from the Cypress Basin Master Gardeners to support student scholarships. The gift, made as part of East Texas Giving Day contributions, will benefit area students pursuing degrees in agriculture or related fields and will also sponsor a Work4College student.

Representatives from both organizations gathered for a check presentation on campus. Pictured from left are Mason May, Director of Work4College; Nita May, Director of Development; Keith Jones and Lois Hill representing the Cypress Basin Master Gardeners; and Dr. Jon McCullough, NTCC Executive Vice President for Advancement.

Those interested in supporting NTCC students can make a gift online anytime at www.ntcc.edu/give or participate in East Texas Giving Day on April 28 by visiting www.ntcc.edu/etgd.
