Savannah State University is the recipient of a $20,000 donation from Pittman Enterprises, the parent company of Chatham Parkway Motors. A check presentation ceremony was recently held to celebrate the gift, which President Kimberly Ballard-Washington proudly accepted on behalf of the university.

"We are so grateful to receive this gift from Pittman Enterprises," said President Ballard-Washington. "Having organizations recognize the good that is going on with our students and the opportunity that exists to help them further themselves is a wonderful thing, and we are very appreciative for the dedication they have to higher education."

Four additional local community organizations were given donations including the American Red Cross, Faith Equestrian, United Way and The Salvation Army totaling $37,464.

"We feel a deep conviction about giving back in ways that truly strengthen our community and bring real help to people," says Winston Pittman, Sr. "This unique list of charities we selected all have strong missions with real outcomes that help a lot of people living right here in and around Savannah."
