U.S. Cellular announced the return of its “Calling All Communities” campaign this week. For the fourth year, U.S. Cellular is giving $1 million to schools to improve the education of students.
The campaign invites communities to band together to vote for their school by visiting their local U.S. Cellular store — Infinite Entertainment in Houston — to pick up a voting code and entering it online at uscellular.com.
Voting begins this Friday and runs through Oct. 21.
The school that garners the most community votes will win $150,000 and the next 17 schools with the most votes will receive $50,000. Calling All Communities is open to all K-12 schools — big or small, public or private. Each winning school can use the money however they choose. Missouri has had two winning schools in the past. One used the money for a new computer lab and the other school was able to buy a new gym floor.
