The Middle Georgia State University Foundation is honored to receive a generous $5,000 gift from the PPC Foundation, funded through PPC Partners, Inc., companies including MetroPower. This contribution supports the MGA Foundation’s 2025 Annual Campaign and advances the University’s commitment to expanding access, strengthening academic programs, and supporting student success.

In its award letter, the PPC Foundation emphasized its mission of improving lives within the communities it serves, praising the dedication of those at MGA who work daily to support students and strengthen the region. MetroPower’s longstanding community-driven philosophy — grounded in service, volunteerism, and giving back — aligns powerfully with MGA’s focus on educating future leaders.

MetroPower and PPC Partners have been valued supporters of MGA, and their continued generosity directly fuels the University’s most pressing needs. MGA’s reach across five campuses and more than 8,800 students, including many first-generation learners, underscores the impact of community investment. At a time when over 80% of MGA students rely on financial assistance, this support helps sustain affordable access and enriches programs that lead to academic achievement and long-term career success.

The MGA Foundation extends heartfelt appreciation to the PPC Foundation and MetroPower for their commitment to higher education and to the future of Middle Georgia. This gift strengthens opportunities for students today and contributes to the ongoing economic and workforce development of the region.
