SAN JOSE, Tinian—For the second year in a row, Tinian company Bridge Investment Group, LLC funded the annual membership fee of the Tinian Junior Senior High School Chapter with the National Honor Society for school year 2017-2018.
“On behalf of the TJSHS National Honor Society, we would like to thank Bridge Investment Group for generously sponsoring our chapter renewal membership fee,” said chapter president Nicole Quichocho. “Their continuous and kind donations have been a great help to our society and students in general. [Bridge Investment Group] has strongly advocated the success of students and we greatly appreciate their support [for] the chapter.”
Since its creation in 1921, the National Honor Society focuses on four main purposes to guide chapters: to create enthusiasm for scholarship; to stimulate a desire to render service; to promote leadership; and to develop character in the students. NHS serves to recognize those students who have demonstrated excellence in these four areas. These purposes also translate into the criteria used for membership selection in each local chapter.
Chapter membership also challenges students to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service.
The NHS members of TJSHS are encouraged to take part in Bridge Investment Group’s Corporate Social Responsibility events that can count toward community service hours to fulfill their chapter membership requirements. (PR)
