Light the Fire Celebration Today!
We hope you will attend our 2nd annual Light the Fire community celebration and program. Friday, February 22, 6:30-8pm.
In addition to celebrating our donors and the success of the 2012-13 Trinity Fund, we will also learn more about our amazing Light the Fire grant program and the three 2012-13 inaugural recipients -- Tachi Dellinger, Jen Rankey and de'Angelo Dia.
What is Light the Fire?
Made possible by gifts to the Trinity Fund, the Light the Fire grant is an "out of the box" professional development experience created to nurture the passions and interests of our faculty and staff. Each experience represents an opportunity for the recipient to meet a dream, further Trinity's mission and ignite the fires of curiosity within our students.
As an added bonus for the evening, we will announce the 2013-14 winners of the Light the Fire grants!
We hope you received your E-invitation via Paperless Post. Please RSVP on the Evite or email Kellie McGregor or call 704. 358. 8101, with any questions. _______________________________________
