CenturyTel Inc. recently presented a $10,000 check to the Archuleta County Education Center, Inc. from its Clarke M. Williams Charitable Foundation.
The Archuleta County Education Center aims to foster responsible citizenship through programs of literacy, education, vocation and life skills that meet the needs of its community. CenturyTel’s donation will match the El Pomar Grant for creating and designing an operational master plan bringing new state-of-the-practice telecommunication’s learning technology into Pagosa Springs. The new project has been dubbed the "Windows to the World" Project. Continued...

“Giving back to the community and assisting organizations such as the Archuleta County Education Center is very important to CenturyTel,” said Area Operations Manager Randy Hall. “Through our community support, this grant supports new learning enabling technology for more comprehensive learning and workforce development programming in support of a larger community base and economic development requirements.”
 The Clarke M. Williams Charitable Foundation was established by CenturyTel with the fundamental belief that companies have an obligation to improve the quality of life where they do business. The focus is to fund programs that support family, children, safety, substance abuse prevention, disaster relief, technology and economic development in the communities CenturyTel serves.
The Foundation values projects that take a creative and innovative approach to fundamental community issues. |
