Companies use golf and laptops to interest CSRA kids

The timing of the Masters golf tournament certainly helped a pair of technology companies to influence future leaders.

Students were part of an interactive, STEM – based Putt-Putt activity to inspire learning. AT&T partnered with Compu adopt, and the nonprofit learned fresh to help the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Augusta.

100 refurbished laptops were donated, along with a $25,000 community investment to support the AT&T Connected Learning Center at the club.

 “Access to technology and digital tools is essential to how our students learn in today’s world. We appreciate AT&T for helping provide that access for young people in Augusta, “said Augusta Mayor Garnett Johnson. This collaboration with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Augusta, AT&T, and Learn Fresh OK is helping open doors for our young people to develop new skills that will help them succeed in school and in life.“
