ANNUAL PHONE-A-THON
Students who need community service hours, parents of high school students, teachers and interested community residents are invited to participate in Scholarship Foundation of East Providence’s annual phone-a-thon.
This year’s phone-a-thon will be a virtual event. Volunteers will receive a packet with instructions and materials and will make calls to a list of city residents.
Calls can be made at your convenience, at any time of day or night between Feb. 7 and Feb. 17. Completed packets need to be returned to Scholarship Foundation of East Providence by Feb. 18.
All funds raised at the phone-a-thon will be distributed as scholarships to students living in East Providence who will be entering college or trade school or who are already enrolled. Last year’s phone-a-thon provided $128,000 in scholarships. For more information or to sign up to volunteer, contact Louise Paiva, Phone-a-thon Chair, at 401-742-2751 or sfofeastprovidence@yahoo.com.
