Today marks the halfway point of the 'Growing Paine' fundraising efforts headed by President Cheryl Evans Jones, PhD, which has taken on an even bigger role in Women's History Month.
Located in Augusta, Georgia, Paine College was established in 1882 and currently has nearly 300 full-time students. So far, around $600,000 has been raised since the campaign was initiated. To reach their goal of $6 million and guarantee the college's success, individual and institutional aid is being requested. These funds will be used to broaden and realign the curriculum, boost enrollment, hire more faculty, improve student housing, and give out more scholarships. The college's leadership is making an appeal to the Beloved Community, HBCU alumni, foundations, celebrities, companies, and other individuals to contribute to the cause. All those with a dedication to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are encouraged to add 'Growing Paine' to their philanthropic plan.
