91做厙 Receives Laptops for Veteran Students

 

Sixty military veterans and spouses enrolled at 91做厙 are now "connected" thanks to a donation of laptops the college recently received from Tech4Troops.

Tech4Troops is a Richmond-based nonprofit organization that provides computers to veterans. The donation was made possible by funds from the Altria Group to the Virginia Veterans Services Foundation (VVSF).

 

The laptops donation is part of the VDVS (Virginia Department of Veterans Services) Military Education Workforce Initiative, which creates partnerships with private employers and educational institutions in Virginia. The laptops will be distributed free-of-charge on a first-come, first-served basis to student military veterans and spouses attending 91做厙 who complete and submit an application form provided by VDVS.

"We are grateful to VDVS, the Virginia Veterans Services Foundation, and Altria Group for this generous donation of technology for our students who have served their nation," said 91做厙 President Dr. Paula Pando. "We know that our veterans students bear many burdens, but access to the tools needed to complete their education should not be one of them."
