The University of Tennessee's Academic Enrichment Upward Bound (AEUB) is a federally funded program that offers academic assistance, career exploration, and college preparation to 50+ high school students in Anderson and Knox Counties, Tennessee.  Eligible students are those whose families meet federal low-income guidelines and are potentially the first ones in their families who will attend colletge. 

The goal of our program is to assist these disadvantaged students in developing the academic skills necessary to sucessfully graduate from high school and enter a college-level program of study.  AEUB services are provided to our students at no charge from their initial entry into the program through their high school graduation. 

An important part of our program is a 5-week residiential component during which the students take classes and build their academic skills.  In order to reward these students for their hard work, we are requesting donated items such as discount coupons, gift certificates, or acutal products/services from local area businesses.  Any items that  you might be willing to donate would be greatly appreciated.
