Mission
El Pomar Youth in Community Service (EPYCS) is a leadership experience
that teaches high school students the importance of service, philanthropy,
and the non-profit sector, while empowering them to directly impact
Colorado communities through grant making.
Tesla
High School art teacher Fran Colby and EPYCS students, working with the El Pomar
Youth in Community Service program (EPYCS) and Coca-Cola, are working on
obtaining a
sizable grant. The students are selling 100 cases of 20-oz bottles of Coke at $20 each.
The money they raised secures a Community Grant from El Pomar for $7,500.
This
money is awarded in grants to nonprofit organizations, and $2,500 of the grant
money can be awarded to departments and projects at Tesla High School.
