Account Control Technology Donates $5,000 to Project Graduation - San Angelo

Account Control Technology, Inc. (ACT), a national leader in delivering debt management and recovery solutions, is pleased to announce that employees of its San Angelo office recently delivered a donation of $5,000 in support of the community’s Project Graduation program, which provides an alcohol and drug-free celebration for high school seniors the night of graduation.

The money was raised in individual contributions by ACT’s San Angelo office employees as well as through a donation match by the Account Control Technology Foundation.

“The month of May is a dangerous time for teens as prom and graduation celebrations can lead to alcohol-related accidents,” said Brian Shively, Director of ACT’s San Angelo office. “ACT is happy to support Project Graduation which helps keep our community’s kids safe on what should be one of the happiest nights of their young lives.”

San Angelo’s Project Graduation 2014 event is for graduating seniors from all of San Angelo’s public and private high schools. It will be held the night of Saturday, May 31, beginning at 9 pm and ending at 4 am. This year’s event has a theme of “Ready for the World” and will feature food, casino games, a rock climbing wall, music, a hypnotist show, a mechanical bull and a large array of prizes.
