A months-old East Allen County Schools program got an almost $200,000 boost Thursday from a foundation that supports northeast Indiana s manufacturing sector.
Superintendent Marilyn Hissong joined Tim Wiegand, executive director of the East Allen Career Center, in accepting a $194,300 check from the 80/20 Foundation Trust.
The money will help the career center buy state-of-the-art equipment to prepare students for the workforce, according to a news release.
Wiegand described it as a generous contribution to the precision machining program.
“This partnership is further evidence of the collaborative relationships being forged throughout northeast Indiana, and the East Allen Career Center is proud to be a part of the energy building in our region,” Wiegand said in a statement.
