Austin, TX – Southern Careers Institute (SCI) wants to make this year a holiday to remember by supporting local families once again with its annual Holiday Tree Giveaway. Students, faculty, and staff at each of SCI’s campuses will decorate and donate a total of 26 trees and deliver them to families in need this holiday season. 

Two deserving families in Austin will receive trees, along with gifts to go under them, as part of the Texas-based vocational and trade school’s annual Holiday Tree Giveaway.  

“Every year, we look forward to the Holiday Tree Giveaway as a way to support families in our local communities,” said Nikki England, President of SCI. “Through our SCI Cares program, we’re able to bring a little extra joy to families who might not otherwise be able to celebrate the holidays the way they would like to.”

Staff and students will deliver the trees, decorations and gifts to the families December 1-2, following local social-distancing and health guidelines. For more information about SCI’s annual Holiday Tree Giveaway or to schedule interviews please contact Melissa Kaszuba at [email protected].

“Once I graduated from SCI, I had a sense of accomplishment that helped me through the job search process. SCI provided me with the opportunity to brush up on my skills, extend my accounting knowledge, and they boosted my self-confidence. I went to work two days after my last day of school.”

“When my youngest child graduated from high school, I told my husband that it was my time. I went back to school to change careers after spending 37 years in the business field. At SCI, the instructors are professional, and they care about what they are teaching you, as well as expect you to give 100% in return. I had problems understanding how to draw in syringes and give injections. I requested extra help from a knowledgeable instructor, and I was able to receive one-on-one training. Today, I draw injections for approximately 100 patients each week. I am very confident in what I’ve learned. SCI has given me the chance to do what I always wanted to do. Thank you for my education. I am doing wonderful.”
