YEScarolina High School Fund
The YEScarolina High School Fund provides valuable support to South Carolina high school classrooms that are actively teaching a certified YEScarolina program. Your donation will support in-class business plan competitions and the annual statewide business plan competition at Midlands Technical College on Friday, April 26, 2024. This initiative is a fantastic way to encourage entrepreneurship and business education for the youth in South Carolina high schools, empowering students to explore and develop their entrepreneurial skills.
Scott Shanklin-Peterson Surprise ELE Award
The Scott Shanklin-Peterson Surprise ELE award is in honor of one of ECM's Founders and a former board chair who invested years of leadership and inspiration to build ECM into what it is today. Upon her retirement as board chair in 2019, the ECM board designated this annual award in her honor. The Scott Shanklin-Peterson Surprise ELE award is for any school not currently experiencing ECM programs who wants to build an arts program and experience arts integration. Schools are selected based on the number of donations received.
