The Ellington Community Scholarship Association will be conducting thier 29th Annual Phone-a-thon on March 21, 28 and 29 from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. Gathered at the Ellington High School guidance department or the Board of Education offices, dozens of students and adults will be calling residents seeking tax-deductible contributions to help high school seniors in Ellington continue their education.
Established in 1959, ECSA is a chapter of Dollars for Scholars (a four star Charity Navigator organization) and oversees many permanent funds as well as the general funds raised each year from hundreds of alumni, residents and businesses who offer financial support for education.
Anyone who is not contacted during the phone-a-thon but who wishes to contribute can send a donation to ESCA, P.O. Box 54, Ellington, CT 06029. Those interested in establishing a permanent fund may inquire at the same address.
