About Ty Cobb Educational Fd Tr Ua
Ty Cobb Educational Fd Tr Ua concentrates its recent giving on scholarship awards to Georgia colleges and universities, with several of the largest checks going to public institutions such as Augusta University, the University of Georgia, and Valdosta State University. The pattern is consistent across undergraduate and professional study: the foundation’s listed programs include undergraduate scholarships, renewal scholarships, and professional degree scholarships for Georgia residents pursuing MD/DO or DMD/DDS degrees. Its awards are sent directly to institutions and are described as scholarship support rather than operating grants. The recent grant list shows a statewide higher-education strategy anchored in Georgia, with repeated support to institutions such as Mercer University School of Medicine, Morehouse School of Medicine, and the University of North Georgia. The foundation also funds private colleges in the state, including Young Harris College, Toccoa Falls College, and Kennesaw State University. Outside Georgia, only a small number of grants appear in the recent record, including awards to Emmanuel College in Massachusetts and Wake Forest University of Medicine in North Carolina. The foundation funds individuals, but the grant list itself shows institutional scholarship disbursements as the main delivery channel.
