PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS WHILE HELPING KIDS ATTEND COLLEGE It’s that time of year again when local businesses can achieve two goals in one evening – helping Paramount students go to college while promoting their company name as a sponsor or prize donor at the Paramount Education Partnership’s 12th Annual Scholarship Fundraiser.
I
The event – on Friday, April 24, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Progress Park Plaza, 15500 Downey Ave. – features great food and fun casino-type games, all for a very good cause.

This year’s theme is “A Taste of California.”
P
Thanks to the generosity of the Paramount business community, PEP has given more than 200 scholarships over the years worth nearly $600,000 to local students who are attending a university, community college, or trade school.
T
For some of these students, the funds have made the difference in whether or not they could continue their education. For all recipients, it has been important assistance to forge a bright future.
T
There are many opportunities for businesses and individuals to sponsor and donate to the event. All donors will receive publicity in a variety of venues.
