Coca-Cola Foundation gives $1 million to endowment fund
at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies

The Coca-Cola Foundation has given a $1 million term endowment, earmarked for scholarships and international training, to accompany the naming of the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies.

"The Coca-Cola Company, through its foundation, has been on the track of supporting education as a singular focus throughout the decade of the '90s," said Ingrid Saunders Jones, chairwoman of The Coca-Cola Foundation.

"Knowing the life and legacy of Andy Young, we all recognize what a meaningful linkage the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies is with Georgia State University…Andy Young understands the importance of an institution that transforms lives, because for over 30 years, Andy has helped to transform our country, our world and our city in every way - spiritually, economically, politically and morally."
