Fowler gives matched NTCC scholarship

Sondra Fowler recently gave a $2,000 gift to the Northeast Texas Community College Foundation. She presented the check to Dr. Jonathan McCullough, NTCC Vice President for Advancement.

Because Fowler is a retired employee of ConocoPhillips, she qualifies for a matching gift program that is offered by the corporation. The gift will be matched with an additional $2,000, bringing her total scholarship contribution to $4,000. The donation will provide scholarships for the Alfred and Ethel Fowler Morris County Scholarship fund.

The NTCC Foundation also recently received two other anonymous donations that were from a retired Chevron employee and a current employee of Dow Chemical. Both of these companies participate in an employee matching program, in addition to many other companies who offer charitable matching programs for employees and retirees. If you are interested in finding out whether or not your employer can help you maximize your giving, contact McCullough at 903-434- 8115 or jmccullough@ntcc.edu.
