In the week leading up to FAFSA Day, P20 staff printed and delivered fliers, in English and Spanish, to every public school in our four-county region. This project was the latest collaboration with our frequent partner, Devon McCarthy-James, the Regional Representative for the West region for the College Foundation of North Carolina (CFNC). Devon led the communication and outreach efforts with counselors at all the high schools. In addition, she equipped us with marketing tools and other resources that enabled us to produce the appropriate number of fliers for each school. All together we provided each high school with enough fliers to send home with every one of their seniors–nearly 3,300 fliers in all!
