Backman Awarded Grant from L3Harris Technologies!
Last week we were honored to receive a check for $30,431 from #L3Harris Technologies! The Social Impact Grant came from our local office and company headquarters. We will use it to replace our aging classroom sets of iPads used for lower grade online academic programs. Thank you @L3Harris Technologies and LEAD, you are an amazing partner!
