larkesville, GA – North Georgia Technical College (NGTC) proudly recognizes Board of Trustees member and former Foundation Board Chairman David Tinsley for his exceptional leadership and years of service to the NGTC Foundation. Tinsley, a retired Methodist minister from Sharp Memorial United Methodist Church in Young Harris, GA, has completed his term on the Foundation Board, where he served from 2019 through December 2025, including two years as chairman in 2023 and 2024.
During his time on the board, Tinsley consistently championed the success of NGTC students—promoting access to education, fostering community support, and contributing to the Foundation’s investment committee to help guide scholarship investment strategies that ensure ongoing financial support for future students. He also led the board during the launch of the Foundation’s first fundraising event, the 1943 Gala, in 2023—an effort that has since become a signature annual celebration of student achievement and community partnership.
“We are so grateful for David’s leadership and the countless ways he has contributed to the mission of North Georgia Technical College,” said Amy Hulsey, Vice President of Institutional Advancement and Marketing and Executive Director of the NGTC Foundation. “His servant’s heart and passion for helping others have made an incredible difference in the lives of our students. We are very grateful for his service to our board for so many years.”
Tinsley’s time on the Foundation Board included leading important fundraising efforts, advocating for technical education, and helping ensure the Foundation’s scholarship and donor investments remain strong and sustainable for generations of future students.
The college extends its sincere appreciation to Tinsley for his many contributions and his faithful commitment to serving NGTC and its students.
