Every day, our students benefit from the gifts provided by faculty, staff, alumni and friends of Georgia Highlands College. Whether it is scholarships, or funds for specific purposes, philanthropy supports vibrancy, creativity and discovery. Regardless of size, each gift impacts a life and makes a difference.  Unrestricted dollars are flexible and immediately available, enabling the college to direct them wherever they are most urgently needed, whether its for an investment to enhance our educational “product” or a safety net to handle unforeseen costs that would otherwise strain GHC’s resources.
