Foundation Events

We invite you to join us as a sponsor of the 21st Annual Opportunity Award Gala, a celebration of leadership, workforce development, and education across Georgia.

This year, we are proud to honor Commissioner Pat Wilson, Georgia Department of Economic Development, for his exceptional leadership in job creation through innovation, business recruitment, trade, tourism, and the arts. Under his guidance, Georgia has been named the No. 1 state to do business for over a decade.

The gala will highlight the remarkable talents of Savannah Technical College’s culinary students, who will showcase their skills throughout the evening. Additionally, guests will experience our college’s diverse hands-on training programs through a specially curated exhibit during the pre-dinner cocktail reception, offering an intimate look at the quality education Savannah Tech provides.

Your sponsorship empowers student success across more than 150 instructional programs, providing future professionals with essential hands-on training in real-world skills and trades. By investing in our students, you are helping build the skilled workforce that drives Georgia’s growth and innovation.

We hope you will be a sponsor and join us for this meaningful evening of celebration and impact.
