U.S. Cellular crisscrossed the country to surprise the Top 10 winning schools in its 2010 Calling All Communities campaign. The million-dollar tour marked by raucous celebrations at schools in seven states, ended last week at a North Side elementary school in the companys hometown.
I congratulate all of the winning schools and the communities that helped them leverage this contest for the benefit of their students, said U.S. Senator Tom Harkin, chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. Its important that we do everything we can to provide the educational resources our children need to compete in the global economy.
Continuing its commitment to investing $4.5 million in schools in 2009-2010,
U.S. Cellulars Calling All Teachers campaign allows public school teachers across the country to post their classroom needs at DonorsChoose.org. The company funds $1 million worth of the projects. Last year, more than 2,100 teachers received support through the program.
