RICHWOOD, W. Va.  – Richwood Middle School in Nicholas County received more than $600 for technology needs through U.S. Cellular’s “Community Connections” program.  Richwood Middle School signed up to receive sponsorship dollars from U.S. Cellular at www.pearup.com/uscellular and then rallied their neighbors, friends and family to earn points that were converted into money for iPad devices.

“Organizations like Richwood Middle School are at the heart of our communities. By ensuring they have the necessary tools and resources to provide meaningful opportunities for our youth, we are investing in our future,” said Brandi McCune, area sales manager for U.S. Cellular.

“Community Connections” is in its second consecutive year, and is an exclusive collaboration between U.S. Cellular and Pear, an online platform that connects local brands with local community needs. Last year, U.S. Cellular provided $295,000 in sponsorships to more than 700 local school groups and youth sports teams through this program.
