TIFTON, Ga. â Despite not having an in-person gala because of the pandemic, the ABAC Foundation set a record in February by raising funds for student scholarships at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College through A Week for ABAC.
ABAC Arts Connection Director Wayne Jones, who coordinated the event, said the Foundation set a record by raising nearly $130,000 for more than 50 student scholarships.
âWhen we first realized we would not be able to host an in-person event, there was no question that we would push forward and reimagine the event virtually,â Jones said. âItâs just too important for our students.
