C&N recognizes the importance of investing in local education and has donated $921,556 to area Educational Improvement, Scholarship, and Pre-Kindergarten Scholarship Organizations. These donations were made under the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) Program.

Education is key to a strong and prosperous community. However, there are many budgetary roadblocks preventing children from receiving the level of education they deserve.

C&N is committed to closing this gap by supporting local organizations that have made it their mission to ensure every child has access to educational opportunities.

“At C&N, we believe we play an important role in our local communities,” said Brad Scovill, President and CEO of C&N. “It all starts with our youth — doing our part to provide them with valuable opportunities to learn and grow will lead to a brighter future for all of us.”
