Description:

The purpose of this grant is to provide funding to Towncreek Vision Corporation to support the TVC C3 Project, which is a collaborative effort designed to help young people learn construction skills and gain industry certifications. The project will offer participants Construction Bootcamp, Masonry I & II, Heating & Air, and Electrical I & II training among other certifications. Participants will receive real-life work experience constructing an 8,500-square-foot building that will be used as a satellite location for Brunswick Community College. Brunswick Community College will provide on-site instruction, scholarship funds, curriculum, and materials. This on-site training concept ensures that participants understand the dynamics of a construction site, including the vocabulary of the worksite, how to read plans, and other relevant experiences. Golden LEAF funds will be used for supplies, materials, tools, and utilities for the construction of the classrooms that will be used as the satellite location.
