INVEST IN THE FUTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF WEBER COUNTY WITH A GIFT TO THE OWATC FOUNDATION
Our current priorities:
Student Support Services
Scholarship Fund: The Foundation assists more than 150 low-moderate income and academically talented students each year with scholarships to assist them to continue or complete training.
Funding for the Scholarship Fund is made possible by the generosity of more than 200 donors each year.
“I hope that more and more people will be able to be helped by this scholarship so that they can pursue their dreams like I did. By providing this opportunity, you are helping our society as a whole.”
- Maria Gomez, recent graduate
Academic Learning Center: Beginning in January 2012, students reading below grade level will receive one-on-one tutoring in this dedicated lab. We expect up to 300 students will use the Academic Learning Center in the first year.
Partial funding for the Academic Learning Center has been provided by generous grants from the St. Benedict’s Foundation, the Alan and Jeanne Hall Foundation, the Sally Langdon-Barefoot Foundation, and Wells Fargo.
Student Success Center: Established in 2010, the Student Success Center provides one-on-one coaching for students to help them stay in school, complete training, and obtain and retain career employment. The center served more than 1,000 students in its first year.
Partial funding for the Student Success Center has been generously provided by the Cross Charitable Foundation, the Latter-day Saints Foundation, the Sally Langdon-Barefoot Foundation, and the employees and board members of the Ogden-Weber Tech College.
Endowment Fund: This fund builds over time to provide investment income for future Foundation priorities and projects.
In-Kind Contributions: The college’s 50+ programs always need equipment and materials to give students the kind of “real world” experience employers require. Contact Karen, 801-395-3781 or thurberk@owatc.edu for more information.
