The Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation of Owego recently awarded $15,000 to the Broome Community College Foundation in Support of Tioga County students.
This funding provides need-based financial support to Tioga County students attending SUNY Broome for the 2017-2018 academic year. There are currently 428 students from Tioga County attending SUNY Broome for the fall 2017 semester.
The Foundation has generously supported Tioga County students since 1987. The Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation has also provided ongoing support for Tioga County students at the SUNY Broome Owego satellite campus located in the Ronald E. Dougherty Office Building in Owego. Courses at the satellite campus are open to all matriculated and non-matriculated, full-time and part-time students.
The SUNY Broome campus community thanks the Truman Foundation for its longstanding generous support of Tioga County students.
“We are so grateful for partners such as the Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation, who enable so many students to pursue their college dreams,” said SUNY Broome President Kevin E. Drumm.
He added, “We draw many students from the Tioga County area. Being able to pursue higher education not only improves their own lives, but also their communities, which benefit from having a trained and educated workforce.”
