Junior Achievement
presents $10,000 check
The All State Foundation
recently awarded $10,000 to
Junior Achievement of Delaware
to help education programs that
prepare Delaware high school stu-
dents for economic success and to
appreciate the free enterprise sys-
tem.
The check was presented Oct.
31 during a ceremony at Cape
Henlopen High School.
A portion of the funding will go
toward Economics for Success, a
financial literacy program for
middle schoolers.
The other portion will go to
High School Heroes, a program
that allows high school teens to
volunteer their time in local ele-
mentary schools, teaching the
Junior Achievement programs to
younger children.
"The All State Foundation is so
pleased to present this check to
Junior Achievement of
Delaware," said Patty
VanLammeren, field vice presi-
dent of All State, Capital Region.
"It represents a continuation of
Allstate's commitment to eco-
nomic education in Delaware.
Helping to educate students about
the free enterprise system rein-
forces a path to economic empow-
erment, one of Allstate's commu-
nity commitments."
Participating in the ceremony
were Delaware Allstate Agent
Melissa Campbell, Michael Firch
of Cape Henlopen School District
and Lucille Morris of Junior
Achievement of Delaware.
