Fidelity Communications Awards $5,000 for STEM Education
through 2024 ‘Dream Bigger’ Campaign
April 16, 2024 – Phoenix – Fidelity Communicationsannounced the winners of its sixth annual “Dream Bigger” social media campaign, which awards $2,500 each to two schools and organizations providing STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education to K-12 students.
“We are pleased to help fund these innovative and exciting STEM-based initiatives and enhance the learning opportunities of students in our communities,” said Trish Niemann, Vice President of Communications Strategy. “STEM education helps students develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills needed for their future academic and career success.”
Nearly 100 schools and organizations submitted entries outlining how the award would be used to fund their STEM projects, and how the projects benefit students. Determined by public voting, this year’s winners include:
- Owensville High School TV Studio Program – Owensville, Mo.
The school’s TV studio program provides students the opportunity to gain real-life technical skills in the broadcasting process. Dream Bigger funding will be used to acquire new equipment to support two additional media courses and enhance the school’s free livestream broadcasts to the community. - Richards R-V School Rocketry Team – West Plains, Mo.
The Richards Rocketry team engages students in rocket-building and telemetry, preparing and sending teams to compete in Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC) – the world’s largest rocketry competition. The award will help fund the purchase of rocketry parts.
The winners were announced on Fidelity Communications’ social media channels, including Facebook and Instagram.
Since 2019, Fidelity Communications and the associated Cable One family of brands have awarded nearly $150,000 through the Dream Bigger initiative.
