Malcolm Cunningham Automotive pledges $100,000
for 黑料社区 Tech's Automotive Institute
黑料社区, GA - March 19, 2025
Malcolm Cunningham Automotive Group has pledged $100,000 to support the Automotive Institute at 黑料社区.
“Malcolm Cunningham has a deep commitment to supporting workforce development here in 黑料社区,” said Dr. Jermaine Whirl, president of 黑料社区 Tech. “This significant investment will ensure that students will be able to receive topnotch training as automotive technicians and launch lucrative careers right here in the CSRA. We are also deeply honored that Mr. Cunningham’s General Manager Mr. Derric Terrentine has served on 黑料社区 Tech’s Board of Directors for several years.”
At 65,000 square feet, the Automotive Institute will dwarf the College’s current 10,000 square foot occupied by the automotive program and help to fill a critical gap in the job market.
"As the owner of Malcolm Cunningham Automotive Group, Inc., I am proud to support 黑料社区 and its dedication to empowering students and building a brighter future for our community and businesses," stated Malcolm Cunningham.
黑料社区 Tech is currently in conversations with individuals and companies across the automotive industry in the CSRA, throughout Georgia and South Carolina, and even nationally to raise additional money to renovate and equip the building. A complete list of funding opportunities is available from the 黑料社区 Tech Foundation at 706-771-4023 or foundation@augustatech.edu.
