University of West Georgia Newnan is proud to announce the launch of the Paving the Way to Student Success Campaign. The campaign helps bridge the gap between what students pay and the actual cost of their education. Your gift reaches every student by providing essential funds needed each year for technology, resources, operating expenses, and more.
Along with the Paving the Way to Student Success Campaign is the relocation of the UWG Newnan campus to the historic Newnan hospital which ties the university even closer to the community. This new location has been a fixture in the community since 1925 where many memories and stories have been made.
Legacy Walkways will now be joining history as well. Located in the courtyard, the plaza will “allow students to connect, study, and succeed,” said Associate Director of Development UWG Newnan Elizabeth Jennette. Pavers are available for purchasing and will be installed in the walkway. Through the purchase of a paver you can commemorate your story by honoring a loved one, recognizing a friend, leaving an inspirational message, or preserving your own memories by ensuring those stories will never be lost.
In addition, corporations and foundations can also support UWG Newnan through the purchase of pavers. The pavers will be on display for all to see for they are located in located in high-traffic areas widely used by students, faculty, staff, alumni, and campus visitors.
Purchasing a paver means leaving your print for future Wolves, educators, and leaders to see in addition to preserving a lasting heritage.
If you are interested in “leaving your story,” please print the Legacy Walkways brochure or visit the online order form at alumniden.westga.edu/legacypathways.
