CAGC JOINS FORCES WITH MMCA TO PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIP

The Metrolina Minority Contractors Association and CAGC's Foundation for the Carolinas Construction Industry joined forces to provide a $1000 scholarship to Brandon Gamett. Originally from Denver, CO, he moved to Charlotte in his early teen years.  He attends New Tech at Garinger High School, where the faculty helps him to develop his talents while he maintains a 3.8 GPA. Brandon is focused on his mission to attend UNC-Asheville to become an architect and later design commercial structures.  The scholarship was presented at the annual MMCA Awards Gala held February 25 at Hilton Charlotte University Place.
