Donor of the Month
The Donor of Month program highlights contributors to Wake Tech as a way to express gratitude for donors like you.
July 2026: This month, we're proud to celebrate Doyon for its generous in-kind gift to Wake Tech's Culinary Arts program. The donation of two deck ovens will significantly enhance hands-on learning, giving our students the tools they need to master essential techniques and excel in professional kitchens.
Wake Tech's Culinary Arts program equips students with the knowledge, experience and confidence to thrive in a range of food service environments, from full-service restaurants and hotels to catering operations and healthcare facilities. Support from partners like Doyon ensures Wake Tech students are not only career-ready, but are set up to succeed in a competitive and dynamic industry.
