NTCC receives $60,000 grant from Pioneer Foundation

Fred Markham, Executive Director of the Texas Pioneer Foundation, recently presented the Northeast Texas Community College Foundation with $60,000 to support the NTCC Work Scholarship Program. The gift came in two separate checks, one for $50,000 to be used as a matching gift for scholarships, and the other for $10,000 to be used as program support.

The program is funded exclusively from private donations and grants. To learn more about the Work Scholarship Program, visit www.ntcc.edu/workscholarship or contact McCullough at 903-563-4198.
