Tri-County Education Foundation<br />
Presents Its 1 st Grant Awards<br />
The Tri-County Education<br />
Foundation is pleased to announce<br />
it has awarded its first<br />
grant awards since its inception<br />
to two Tri-County Regional<br />
Vocational Technical High<br />
School clubs. The Robotics<br />
club has been awarded $500<br />
and the SkillsUSA club has<br />
been awarded $500.<br />
The funds associated with<br />
the awards will be used to fund<br />
participation in competitions<br />
including travel expenses allowing<br />
both clubs to compete at a<br />
national level.<br />
Foundation Board President<br />
Christopher Ward said, “The<br />
grants were awarded to help<br />
defray the cost of the transportation<br />
and incidentals needed<br />
for students to compete, which<br />
falls outside the normal scope<br />
of school budget funding.”<br />
The Foundation is currently<br />
seeking sponsorships within the<br />
community for financial support<br />
and commitment to the<br />
Tri-County community. Those<br />
organizations who would like to<br />
inquire about becoming a Tri-<br />
County Education Foundation<br />
sponsor, please go to the website<br />
