What is Because of You?
Because of You is an annual scholarship fundraising event sponsored by the Northeast State Foundation.
The goal of the Because of You Campaign is to raise scholarship money for Northeast State students. All funds raised by events and sales during the campaign are used for Northeast State scholarships and programs. Contact Josh Johnson for more information.

Because of you, we can find joy in the small things while giving back.
The Because of You campaign is a time when creativity and community thrive.
Donated treasures support dreams.
Talent and heart spark growth.
Friendly competition fuels generosity, every drive bringing students closer to their goals.
And the community sees what Northeast State is all about.
It starts with one small act, a smile, a helping hand, a dollar, a ripple that reaches farther than you think.
And because of you, they can go even further. They can dream even bigger. They can be all they were meant to be.
Because of you, we can.
Okay. Yeah, that was it. That was great. Oh yeah!
