GREENVILLE, Pa.-- On Sept. 4, Terri Fischer, educational solutions representative from Waste Management, presented Dr. Jennifer Griffin, assistant academic dean of Thiel College, with a check for $5,000.

The funds were donated to the college through the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit program (EITC). 

EITC allows businesses to direct a portion of their tax dollars to support local organizations, which are designated by the state as approved scholarship, educational improvement and/or pre-kindergarten scholarship organizations. Thiel College is an approved educational improvement organization with the program, providing educational outreach to local K-12 schools through programs such as College for Kids, Thiel Scholars and Earth Week.
