Valdosta, Ga. – Wiregrass Georgia Technical College announces the dedication of the Valdosta Campus Library in honor of Southeastern Credit Union (SECU), recognizing its generous $50,000 gift and longstanding commitment to student success and workforce development.

The newly dedicated library is located in the Sidney and Sharon Morris Hall Building. The library serves as a research facility for students, faculty, staff, and community patrons.

“The steadfast commitment of local industry to ensure our students are skillfully trained and workforce-ready is exciting,” said Stacy Bush, Chairman of Wiregrass Foundation South. “Southeastern Credit Union’s ongoing support exemplifies the kind of community collaboration that drives progress and opportunity.”

To date, the Wiregrass Foundation South has awarded over $130,000 in scholarships to students on the Valdosta and Cook campuses. Students are encouraged to apply through a simplified online application process available at www.wiregrass.edu, where the Foundation helps match students with scholarships relevant to their program of study.

“We are incredibly grateful to Southeastern Credit Union for their generous $50,000 gift to Wiregrass Georgia Technical College,” shared Wiregrass President DeAnnia Clement. “Their investment in our students and the dedication of our library in their honor reflect a shared commitment to education, access, and opportunity. This gift will have a lasting impact on the learning environment and success of our students for years to come.”
