CONNECTICUT July 14, 2024 - Senator Richard Blumenthal paid a visit to Walter & Valita to present a Certificate of Special Recognition Award for 'helping kids stay in school and on the right track through sports and academics'. Walter was delighted and honored to receive this recognition. Walter’s goal is to train the youth in Bridgeport, New Haven, Norwalk, and Waterbury to prepare them for the corporate and working world.
The Walter E Luckett Jr Foundation prepares their high school and college students within their various educational programs with internships. These internships are in various industries with local companies in Connecticut. These positions are provided by the various partnerships and friendships Walter has created over the years. Walter discussed with senator Blumenthal the importance and benefits of his non-profit. Walter expressed how students keep busy during summer months and it would not be possible without donors and funding which make the positive educational and sports learning experience come to fruition.
