The Horry-Georgetown Technical College (HGTC) Foundation has received a $30,000 grant from John and Trena Draughn. This donation will support the development of the lobby and vestibule area in the new Nursing & Health Sciences Institute at the HGTC Grand Strand Campus. The Draughns have consistently supported the college, emphasizing their commitment to education and healthcare professional growth.

HGTC President Dr. Marilyn Murphy Fore thanked the Draughns for their ongoing support and their role in advancing educational programs at HGTC. This recent contribution will improve the experiences of students and faculty at the new institute.

The Draughns have previously supported the International Culinary Institute and created the Trena & John Draughn Medical Laboratory Technician Endowed Scholarship in 2022. Their continued donations enhance the educational environment and demonstrate strong community engagement.

The funding for the Nursing & Health Sciences Institute will help create a welcoming and motivating space for students and faculty, aligning with HGTC's goals for academic excellence and student success.
