Scouts Emily Lloyd of Troop 742 and Preston Javorka of Troop 2 were recently awarded with new technology as part of the the Boy Scouts of America Coastal Carolina Council’s “Computers with a Cause” program.
The Summerville-based students were asked to submit their applications through the “Computers with a Cause” website (https://computerswithacause.org).
Applicants are evaluated on detailed community service, academic success and their need for a computer, among other criteria brought before the awards committee.
The computers were presented at the Coastal Carolina Council BSA Office in North Charleston, which serves nine counties and also includes the Town of Summerville.
“This is exactly what we want to accomplish at ‘Computers with a Cause.’ Giving these hard-working and deserving scouts who really could benefit from having their own computer really made my Christmas,” said Coastal Carolina Council VP of Marketing Bobby Baker, who founded “Computers with a Cause” six years ago.
Troop 2 Scout Master Glenn Justis attended the awards ceremony to receive one of the computers for Javorka, who was traveling to visit family.
Awards will be made available on a rolling basis, according to Baker.
