PCOM South Georgia plans ‘Night to Ignite’ celebration

MOULTRIE – In August 2019, PCOM South Georgia opened an additional location in Moultrie, becoming the first and only medical school in this region of the state. To make this a reality, a host of people came together and supported the effort. Five years later, that community backing not only continues, but has increased in strength.

On Oct. 19, PCOM South Georgia will hold the “A Night to Ignite” celebration, with Colquitt Regional Medical Foundation as its title sponsor. The festivities will celebrate its champions by bestowing the Ignite Award on Jim and Jill Matney and Jeter Partners LLC. Through generous sponsorships like that of Colquitt Regional Medical Foundation, as well as ticket sales, the institution has raised money to create new endowed scholarships that will be awarded to students from southwest Georgia. The celebration event is part of PCOM’s United & Ignited comprehensive fundraising campaign, which is focused on raising money for student success.
