Business at Burns
Wednesday, May 14, 2008
The Mobile Area Education Foundation (MAEF) awarded Gigi Armbrecht, AT&T and Sam Covert, Alabama Power for championing the cause for Mobile County public school students during the Business at Burns breakfast meeting held at Cranford Burns Middle School. Both Alabama Power and AT&T have been at the forefront of MAEF’s Yes We Can public engagement initiative and through corporate support of MAEF initiatives, AT&T and Alabama Power were selected to receive the first Yes We Did! Awards. Over 30 business leaders enjoyed the opportunity to learn more about Mobile county Public School successes and the Engaging Youth in Engineering (EYE) program as well as take a grand tour of Burn’s new engineering lab. The Mobile Area Education knows that through partnerships, success for all students is inevitable.
