David and Nancy Stafford have pledged $25,000 to the Greenville Tech Foundation to be used for student scholarships. Interest from the gift will fund one semester’s tuition each year for a full-time student living in Greenville County.
David Stafford, the chief human resources officer for Michelin North America, serves as chairman of the Greenville Technical College Area Commission, the college’s governing board. In addition, he serves on the Greenville Tech Foundation’s empowering tomorrow campaign steering committee. Nancy Stafford, a teacher at Hughes Academy, has a long commitment to education.
“We are very grateful to the Staffords for this lasting gift,” said Dr. Keith Miller, president of Greenville Technical College. “We work to help our students achieve success while we broaden access to our programs and services. By helping with financial hurdles, this fund will allow more students to enroll and graduate.”
“Access to education is the greatest opportunity we have to ensure that the American Dream lives on for generations to come. We all must help,” said David Stafford.
