Purpose and Scope:
The purpose of Project Care is to provide financial assistance to students and employees of West Georgia Technical College who are in need of assistance. The financial assistance (stipends) will be based on the funding availability and will be offered to students and employees in both adult and technical education programs. All requests are kept in strict confidentiality.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
1. A legal resident of the United States.
2. MUST be a current student or employee of West Georgia Technical College (will be required to show student ID).
3. May only receive funding once per twelve month period.
4. Funds awarded based on need and on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are depleted.
Emergency assistance funding can be considered for events like loss of home, impact of natural disaster or fire, loss of job and income, health emergency or terminal illness, and death of immediate family member. We also encourage the use of Project CARE funding around the holiday season to offset extra end-of-year expenses.
