Employee Giving Campaign
Thank you for your interest in the Employee Giving Campaign. The Piedmont Technical College Foundation is exceedingly grateful for the contributions received over the years by donors like you. Every penny donated goes to support the mission and goals of the college. Without your support, fewer students would have the opportunity to reach for and achieve their dreams.
