S.U.R.F. Board Awarded $4,750 in 2024 Grants
Davie County Mock Trial Club – $1,000 to fund competition entry fees, timers, travel costs and professional attire for those that cannot afford it. This club consists of a passionate group of students that are provided with the unique opportunity to learn teamwork, public speaking, critical thinking, sportsmanship, and knowledge of the law.
Davie County High School – $1,750 to create and implement “Serving Coffee and Smiles” – a coffee cart executed by the Soaring Eagles program and served to the Davie High teachers. The Soaring Eagles students will pass out order forms, collect the forms, make the coffee drinks and deliver them to the teachers each Friday. The Soaring Eagles program is designed to help impact our special needs youth. All of these students will be able to participate in the hands-on tasks involved with the coffee cart project. The cart and supplies will provide the students with the opportunity to learn organization, teamwork, time management and leadership.
Davie County Early College High School – $2,000 to support more multi-cultural events for the students of the Davie County Early College High School to participate in as well as craft materials and T-shirts for community events. The need was expressed for funds to execute cultural celebrations more frequently. These events give students the opportunity to both learn and develop an appreciation for cultures different from their own. Money will also be used to purchase T-Shirts and craft materials for the students to use when they visit the elementary schools and engage with the younger students.
