SOLDOTNA, AK (May 20, 2011) – Covenanters can help Alaska Christian College (ACC) win a new much-needed van.

Toyota is sponsoring the 100 Cars for Good program, awarding 100 vehicles over the course of 100 days. Each day five nonprofits compete against each other, and the organization receiving the most votes will win the vehicle.

“We’ve used mini-vans and two 15-passenger vans to transport our 40 students,” says ACC President Keith Hamilton. The heavy usage is wearing out the vehicles.

The school hopes to increase its full-time enrollment to 60 students and to achieve accreditation by February so that it can offer an associate’s degree program, Hamilton says. Winning the vehicle will enable the school to direct more resources to faculty, books, and classroom space.
