The Chattanooga Transportation Club presented a gift of $1,200 to the Chattanooga State Foundation to fund a Commercial Truck Driving Scholarship. The gift will be used to establish the Chattanooga Transportation Club Commercial Truck Driving Scholarship.

The gift was presented to Don Hunt, coordinator of the Tennessee Technology Center’s commercial truck driving program at Chattanooga State Community College.
