OLLI@UGA President Mac Rawson poses with Athens-Clarke Mayor Nancy Denson at recent Volunteer and Presenter Apprecication Social

Athens-Clarke County Mayor Nancy Denson attended the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Georgia’s Volunteer & Presenter Appreciation Social on April 11 to present a proclamation designating the week of April 9-13 OLLI@UGA Week in Athens. The proclamation noted the important role OLLI plays in helping adults over 50 remain mentally, physically, and socially active, thereby contributing more to the Athens area community.

OLLI@UGA now has over 700 members and offers a wide array of courses and activities each year. In November 2011, OLLI@UGA received a million dollar endowment from The Bernard Osher Foundation.  This endowment helps provide the financial resources needed to achieve its mission of meeting the intellectual, social, and cultural needs of mature adults through lifelong learning. OLLI@UGA is one of 117 Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes nationwide.
