“I am thrilled we can say that we are doing our part to help these young students, pursue further education and become productive members of the workforce,” said Bobby Stephen. “Contributions are the lifeblood of our organization and allow us to provide young people with the opportunity to reach their full potential while becoming skilled members of the workforce.”
