On this episode of the NC State Philanthropy Podcast, we’re joined by Bentina Terry, chair of the NC State University Foundation’s Board of Directors, to discuss the foundation and its invaluable work. A dedicated NC State alumna, Terry graduated from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences having earned a bachelor’s degree in English with a teaching option. She serves as the CEO of Southern Company’s telecommunications division and has been with the company for more than 23 years.

Terry is also a scholarship supporter. She joined with several members of her family to create a fund that celebrates her father’s passion for education and to promote its accessibility for all. By also contributing her time and talent through service to the NC State University Foundation and to other campus boards over the years, Terry works to provide even more students with the opportunity to Think and Do at her alma mater.
