Donations Being Accepted for linemen working in hurricane-ravaged areas

The devastation of recent storms has left many out of power in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. More than 100 electrical line workers, including former LLCC students and those affiliated with our lineman program partner (Association of Illinois Electric Cooperatives), are onsite in these locations to restore power.

LLCC’s electrical distribution lineman program, in collaboration with the LLCC Foundation, is holding a donation drive this week for supplies to help out these line workers and potentially those affected by the storms. They will be delivering supplies on Saturday. Items needed include bottles of water, granola bars, bags of chips (individual serving size).

All donations are appreciated and can be dropped off in the LLCC Foundation office through Friday, Oct. 11, at noon.
