Representatives from Hargray Communications were on hand last Saturday to distribute new backpacks and gift cards to some very deserving students at the Beaufort County School District’s “Back-to-School Expo” at Whale Branch Early College High School.
Approximately 200 students will start the new school year with a brand new backpack, as well as a $50 gift card from Walmart to spend on school supplies and uniforms. In addition, several other students received new iPads and Kindle Fires, also donated by Hargray.
“This is our third year taking part as a lead sponsor of this great event,” said Eddie Andrews, Director of Marketing for Hargray. “And having the opportunity to show our support to students and families from throughout the community has made this a truly rewarding experience for us each year.”
Additional backpacks will be donated to students as part of Hargray’s Back-to-School Upgrade promotion, in which customers signing up or upgrading to 10Mbps Hargray High Speed Internet have the option of keeping the new backpack or donating it. The promotion runs through August 31. More information can be found at www.hargray.com.
