Feb. 25, 2021 – Emporia, Kansas – Schools and organizations serving K-12 students in Emporia have the opportunity to win $3,000 to fund their science, technology, engineering or math project or club as part
of ValuNet Fiber’s annual “Dream Bigger” social media campaign.
K-12 schools and organizations can enter to win simply by sharing a photo and written entry outlining how the money will be used to fund their technology project – whether for equipment, competition
fees, field trips or otherwise – and how it benefits students. The winning entry will receive a $3,000 award.

“The diverse and innovative ways students in the communities we serve utilize technology both inside and outside of the classroom is impressive and paves the way for our future,” said Trish Niemann, Senior
Director of Corporate Communications. “In an increasingly digital world, made more evident during the Coronavirus pandemic, we are excited to see how technology is helping students dream bigger, and we want to do our part to help make those dreams happen.”

Entries will be accepted from March 1 through March 19 at myvalunet.com/contest. Five finalists will be selected by ValuNet and the winner will be determined by public voting from March 22 through March 31. The finalists – as well as the school or organization selected to receive the award – will be highlighted on ValuNet’s social media channels, including Facebook.
