Named Gifts

Named Gift Opportunities

Over the years, many have chosen to provide assistance to OTC and its students through a named gift contribution. Your name, company’s name, or the name of someone you wish to honor or memorialize can be appropriately recognized.

We invite you to consider the wide variety of opportunities and help the College address current needs and prepare for the challenges of the next century. You are also encouraged to work with the OTC Foundation and the College to create other naming opportunities that might be more closely aligned with your special area of interest.
