EASLEY — The Bank of America Charitable Foundation provided a $5,000 grant to Tri-County Technical College’s Connect to College (C2C) program to provide enrolled students with textbooks.

The program provides academically capable youth between the ages of 17 and 20 the opportunity to simultaneously earn their high school diploma and college credit, up to and including a post-secondary credential.

The first of its kind in South Carolina, C2C is a program for students who, for a variety of reasons, have faced difficult challenges in traditional high school environments.
