The responsibility of career development not only lies with educational institutions but with the community—local organizations and businesses—as well. That is why the Enterprise Holding Foundation recently provided a grant of $8,000 to the College of Coastal Georgia’s COMPASS Career and Academic Advising department. The funds will be used to provide career development programming to Coastal Georgia students.
Colin Beauchamp, local representative of Enterprise Holdings, recently visited campus to discuss the grant and the Foundation.
“The Enterprise Holdings Foundation is a longtime supporter of initiatives focused on community improvement, education, and environmental stewardship. Working with the College of Coastal Georgia in their efforts to prepare students for the workforce and improve the economic well-being of the area is exactly what the Foundation is about,” Beauchamp said.
Director of Career and Academic Advising Brian Weese is excited about the programming opportunities the grant provides for students.
"The Enterprise Holdings Foundation's gift will play a large role in providing career-centered programming to Coastal Georgia students over the academic year,” Weese said. “Colin and Enterprise Holdings have been an invaluable partner for many years, and we look forward to working with them to continue to provide amazing programming and career options to Coastal Georgia students".
