U.S. Cellular Donates $25K to Boys & Girls Clubs of the Midlands

U.S. Cellular (www.uscellular.com/about/community-outreach) has made a $25,000 donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Midlands to provide K–12 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) educational opportunities to youth for the fifth consecutive year. This is part of a $1 million donation to clubs across the country. With a particular focus on STEM programming and learning, U.S. Cellular’s charitable efforts have funded more than 50 Boys & Girls Clubs after school and academic enrichment programs for the last five years.

During the company’s fifth annual “Month of Giving,” U.S. Cellular associates celebrated National Volunteer Month in April by taking part in a variety of volunteer opportunities. Employees will help youth learn more about STEM-focused careers and professions through hands-on sessions and demonstrations. With the help of JASON Learning, the company will also look to motivate students to gain a better understanding of how technology can help create solutions to improve their communities.

U.S. Cellular has a long-standing commitment to the community and education. The company has contributed more than $14.5 million to K–12 education since 2009. In 2018, U.S. Cellular associates volunteered at more than 200 events and are committed to volunteering 35,000 hours in its local communities again in 2019.
