Careington Benefit Solutions' QuoteSavant Brand Sponsors Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Oration Competition & Gala
Frisco, TX – January 17, 2024
Careington Benefit Solutions direct-to-consumer brand, QuoteSavant, proudly served as a "Dream" level sponsor for the 14th annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay and Oration Scholarship Competition. This annual event is hosted by Linking Cultures of Frisco, a Frisco-based non-profit organization with a mission to recognize and appreciate the diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds that connect our community.
This competition provides high school juniors and seniors across Frisco with the opportunity to earn money toward higher education by showcasing their public speaking skills and promoting the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. During the event, five finalists competed for more than $7,000 in college scholarships and presented their orations, each speaking to the theme "Many Cultures...One Dream" to a live audience of limited attendees and panel of judges, including Careington Assistant Director of Claims Administration, Marisa Richardson.
"The QuoteSavant team is proud to have been a sponsor of this year's scholarship event," said Sean Loving, Careington Benefit Solutions Senior Vice President of Customer Engagement and Insurance Markets. "As a Frisco High School alumni myself, it was inspiring to hear impressive finalists represent our community and honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. through their own unique perspectives."
"Each year, the Careington family of companies values the opportunity to support Linking Cultures of Frisco and celebrate the diverse community that we have called home for over two decades," Careington Benefit Solutions Chief Executive Officer Stewart Sweda said. "We are honored to have sponsored this event once again to commemorate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and help remarkable students achieve their dreams of higher education."
Linking Cultures of Frisco has awarded almost $80,000 in scholarships to deserving students thanks to the financial support of sponsors like QuoteSavant and others in the Frisco community.
