The Nicholas County Career and Technical Center in Craigsville received $1,000 sponsorship through U.S. Cellular’s “Community Connections” program. This funding will support four students who are a part of the Future Health Professionals Organization. To celebrate, U.S. Cellular leaders presented a check at the Nicholas County Career and Technical Center located at 215 Milam Addition Road on Tues., April 18 at 10 a.m.  The Center signed up to participate in this program, became eligible to receive sponsorship dollars from U.S. Cellular at www.pearup.com/uscellular and then rallied their neighbors, friends and family to earn money towards student scholarship.
“We are proud to support organizations like the Nicholas County Career and Technical Center that have a positive impact in our communities. Being able to offer access to funds that aren’t typically available allows them to provide the best experiences for our youth,” said Brandi McCune, area sales manger for U.S. Cellular.
“Community Connections” is in its third consecutive year, and is an exclusive collaboration between U.S. Cellular and Pear, an online platform that connects local brands with local community needs. Since the program launched in 2015, U.S. Cellular has awarded nearly $900,000 in sponsorship dollars to more than 2,200 local school groups and youth sports teams through this program.
