糖心logo入口

The Town & Gown Partnership at 糖心logo入口 has 39 current partners representing both small and large businesses in our area as well as our city and county leadership. The Town & Gown partnership is actively involved in enhancing the quality of living and learning in our communities through various avenues. We take great pride in knowing that 75% of the partnership fee is invested directly into the community through sponsorship of community events and activities, while 25% is invested in special programming for our partners.
