TIFTON—Colquitt Regional Medical Center invested $10,000 in the annual An Evening for ABAC scholarship fundraiser at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in 2018.
That investment paid a huge dividend for ABAC students Jarod Henderson, Kaycee Goodman, Eva Portillo, and Taylor Kight. All four students earned ABAC Foundation scholarships due to the Colquitt Regional investment.
Henderson is a sophomore nursing major from Ashburn, and Goodman is a junior nursing major from Chula. Portillo, a sophomore from Moultrie, and Kight, a junior from Moultrie, are also nursing majors.
Six ABAC students will benefit during the 2019 fall semester from a new Colquitt Regional investment in the recent 2019 version of An Evening for ABAC since the Medical Center raised its contribution to $15,000, reaching the ABAC Foundation’s 1908 Circle Level of giving.
