About

The Transform campaign has the potential to transform the lives of students like nothing we have ever done before at Toccoa Falls College. TFC has grown dramatically in the past decade, increasing from 800 students to over 2,500! It is time to make changes to our infrastructure in ways which allow our students to study in better environments and operate each day with improved academic, athletic, and physical resources. The college is not changing its Christian beliefs and foundation in any way! We only want to make those beliefs stronger. The campaign is based on Isaiah 43:19 that says: "For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?"

Checks can be mailed to Toccoa Falls College, 107 Kincaid Drive MSC 809, Toccoa Falls, GA 30598. Please note Transform on the memo line.

If you have any questions, please call the Advancement Office at 706-914-8672, Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
