ECC Supports Bike Ride

Edgecombe Community College was among the organizations that participated in a recent local bike ride to raise awareness of prostate health. The ECC Foundation donated 50 backpacks that were given to the riders. The backpacks contained information about college programs and the Edgecombe Pledge, ECC’s new scholarship initiative that provides free tuition and fees to all qualifying students. Shown with the ECC backpacks are members of the Biker Girls, a bike group based in Tarboro. From left are ECC alumnae Chiquinta Dickens, Antoinette Lewis, Julia Bryant, Barbara Hobbs, and Rosetta Sherrod-Jones.
