Our Story
At Gwinnett Technical College, all students can achieve at high levels, no matter their background. A majority of our students come from historically underserved communities, and we know that when they’re provided with the proper resources, they’ll succeed.
Established in 1994, the Gwinnett Tech Foundation was created to support and enhance higher education at Gwinnett Tech. Within that broad mission, our actions, achievements, and priorities are many – but all ultimately benefit our students and, by extension, our community.
The Foundation works to secure student scholarships and additional ways to make the goal of a college education – and a rewarding career – possible. In addition, to enrich our faculty and staff, we develop and make funding possible for various professional development opportunities. On campus, the Foundation is the driving force behind the capital drives that made many of Gwinnett Tech’s facilities possible — including the George Busbee International Center for Workforce Development, Life Sciences Center, and the Alpharetta-North Fulton Campus.
