ALBANY, GA -- Tuesday afternoon the Albany Tech Foundation, Inc. was presented with a check in the amount of $1,000 from Holy Victory Deliverance Temple, Inc. on behalf of current Tech student Thomas F. Henry, Sr.
A scholarship fund will be set up in memory of Henry’s wife, who had also been a student at Albany Tech. The church intends to add $50 each month to grow the fund. The funds will go to assist students with special needs.
“We all hope that the organizations we are involved with are valued by those we serve,” said President of Albany Technical College Dr. Anthony Parker in the release. “Most of the time, we receive feedback in the form of a letter, survey results, or phone call. It is very gratifying when the work done by the college is memorialized in a remembrance. We are honored and touched to the recipient of a true gift from the heart,” added Parker.
Wendy Johnson, the daughter of the late Mrs. Henry, is also a current student at Albany Tech.
