AT&T recently donated $900 to Reinhardt University’s 2015-16 A DAY for Reinhardt campaign.

“AT&T is pleased to support the Reinhardt University A Day campaign, which provides scholarships for Cherokee County high school students attending Reinhardt,” said Don Barbour, regional director of external affairs for AT&T Georgia. “Education has been a priority at AT&T for more than a century and when we invest in education, we are making our communities stronger and more economically viable. Investing in a well-educated workforce may be the most important thing we can do to support a strong local and global economy.”

Created in 1988, the A DAY for Reinhardt campaign is an annual effort to provide support for Cherokee County students attending Reinhardt University. A DAY helps to fund the University’s Cherokee County Grant Program. This grant gives eligible students the opportunity to receive as much as $8,000 during their four years at the University. Since A DAY’s inception, more than $3 million in Cherokee County grants have been awarded to local deserving students.

For more information about A DAY or to volunteer, visit its website, Facebook page or contact Dale Morrissey at 770-720-5506 or DSM1@reinhardt.edu.
