EVIT Students have Penny Wars for United Way

The gloves are off and East Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT) Mesa United Way Teams are competing to see which students can collect the most pennies. But it isn't just nice penny collecting. Students can sabotage the other teams by putting larger valued coins and paper money into their opponents' jars. The team has to remove an equal value of pennies for all larger denominations...so some of the teams are already in the "hole" for the competition, but garnering big donations for Mesa United Way.

Assemblies were held for all EVIT students with pep rallies led by the four Team Leaders who oversee EVIT's forty programs.

EVIT was honored with the "Heart of Mesa" Award for Mesa United Way in Spring 2010. It is the commitment of the students, staff and administration to be creative and participate on every level for this great organization.
