Ice cream social promotes Foundation’s donor brick
campaign
Members of the Athens Technical College faculty and staff braved the May 31
afternoon heat outside the Life Sciences building as they savored cool bowls of ice cream
and signed up to support the Athens Tech Foundation’s donor brick program.
Radiography instructor Jill Drerup grabbed a piece of chalk, knelt over the
pavers and carefully marked the brick she had chosen. Drerup was one of several people
who designated pavers as their donor bricks on the day of the ice cream social.
Donor brick pavers have been placed in the plaza at the Life Sciences building
on the Athens Campus as well as outside the Coggins Building on the Elbert County
Campus, and those donors who contribute $100 per brick to the Athens Tech Foundation
can have a name or message engraved on the bricks for which they donated. In the Life
Sciences plaza there are three arrays of bricks along the sidewalk.
Since the donor brick campaign started in 2009, there have been two sets of
engraved bricks installed at each campus. The most recent installation of bricks was May
16. The Foundation is continuing to take orders for bricks and plans to place another
engraved batch this winter.
The Foundation has made it easy for Athens Technical College employees to pay
for the donor bricks via payroll deduction if their forms are returned to the Foundation
office by Monday, June 11.
