Dear PGSF Grant Committee,
On behalf of the Ferris State University Graphic Media Management program, I want to extend my sincere appreciation for awarding our students the travel grant to attend Printing United this year.
As I complete the required documentation and submit our receipts, I did not want to miss the opportunity to express my gratitude for your support.
With Thanksgiving approaching, I’m reminded of how thankful I am for organizations like PGSF (Now The FGCE) – organizations that continually invest in students, open doors for them, and help shape the next generation of print and media professionals.
The impact of this opportunity is real. In the classroom, we teach only a fraction of what this industry includes. When students walk into Printing United, their eyes light up. They see the scale, the innovation, the energy, and suddenly everything we talk about in class comes alive. Many of them said they had no idea how vast the print and graphics industry truly is.
Experiences like this ignite their passion, expand their career vision, and reinforce that they are entering a field full of opportunity.
Thank you again for your commitment to advancing education in graphic communications and for believing in the potential of our students.
Please find attached a few photos of our group from Printing United. We hope they bring a smile and show just how meaningful this experience was for them.
Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving season.
Warm regards,
Amela O’Gorman
