CLARKSTON, Ga. — Faculty and staff of Georgia Piedmont Technical College were treated to an extra dose of generosity at their annual Grateful Gathering holiday event and meeting this past Friday. Amazon, the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners (on behalf of Commissioner Mereda Davis-Johnson) and the city of Stonecrest each presented checks to the college's Foundation which will manage and distribute the funds for GPTC. Amazon's gift totaled $70,000, DeKalb County's was $150,000 and the City of Stonecrest gave a whopping $500,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds.
