Phonathon rings in success

Eighty Concord-Carlisle High School students assisted the Concord-Carlisle Scholarship Fund (CCSF) at the Annual Phonathon on Sunday, March 20, placing almost 3,500 calls to townspeople and friends.

The phonathon continues Tuesday night, March 22.

The Phonathon raises money to provide need-based college scholarships to students who live in or who have attended school in Concord or Carlisle. Since 1966, generous donors have enabled CCSF to award over $2 million to almost 1,000 students. 

"CCSF Scholarships help our classmates and friends pursue their dreams of higher education," said CCSF National Honor Society Officer Sam Fell. 

CCSF Phonathon Chair Barbara Fisher said, "Thank you to all who answered the students' calls for contributions; every gift helps to empower an education."
