Broadband leader provides ongoing support to
educators and students in the area with the Teacher of the Month
Award and Stuff the Bus Annual School Supply Drive
AUGUSTA,
Ga., Sept. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- WOW!
Internet, TV & Phone (NYSE: WOW), a leading broadband services
provider, and the Augusta GreenJackets, the Carolina League
affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, today announced another successful
MiLB season honoring the teachers of the Central Savannah River
Area (CSRA) through the WOW! Teacher of the Month Award. For the
seventh year in a row, students, parents or family members
nominated outstanding teachers in the area who go above and beyond
to create a positive education experience. WOW! also participated
in this year's Stuff the Bus Annual School Supply Drive, benefiting
the United Way of the CSRA.
WOW! is a proud supporter of the CSRA community, powering the
GreenJackets' stadium, SRP Park, with internet, phone and TV
services. During home games at SRP Park, WOW! honored five teachers
with the Teacher of the Month Award. Each winner was recognized
during on-field pre-game ceremonies and received $500 from WOW! for classroom expenses, four
GreenJackets reserved seat tickets and a commemorative plaque
serving as a lasting symbol of their accomplishment.
In a joint effort with the GreenJackets and SRP Federal Credit
Union, WOW! also co-hosted the Stuff the Bus Annual School Supply
Drive at SRP Park in July. The drive collects school supplies to
donate to the United Way of the CSRA and helps to ease some of the
financial hardships associated with back-to-school shopping for
families within the community.
"Every year we are proud to sponsor the WOW! Teacher of the
Month Award and honor the educators in the Augusta community that are making a difference
in the lives of their students," said Jason
Sand, senior director, contact center operations at WOW!.
"We are passionate when it comes to supporting education efforts in
CSRA both with this award and the Stuff the Bus Drive. We are
grateful to our partners who are equally committed to ensuring a
better future for our younger generations and the teachers who
advance their learning on a daily basis."
"Thank you to WOW! and the community for showing up every year
to help our local students and teachers. We are indebted to the
teachers who ensure our kids thrive and are proud to have honored
them with this esteemed award throughout our 2024 season," said
Tom Denlinger, vice president of the
Augusta GreenJackets.
