Cass City PROMISE

The Cass City PROMISE strives to stimulate the community by creating a culture and financial support for postsecondary education (college or trade school) for ALL Cass City High School graduates.

Several community benefits of the PROMISE include

• Improved life opportunities and prosperity for high school graduates,

• Increased student enrollment and quality resources for schools,

• enriched relationships and connectedness between all K-12 students and Cass City residents via on-going student community service

• Enhanced economic growth and development for the community, and 

• Heightened community involvement and pride.

The PROMISE is managed by the Cass City PROMISE organization, with significant partner support from Thumb Bank and Trust, Cass City Public Schools and Sanilac Community Foundation.  

Components of the PROMISE include both a Children’s Savings Account (Red Hawk NEST EGG) and Educational Stipend (Red Hawk FLIGHT).  The Red Hawk NEST EGG is slated to begin during the 2020-2021 school year, while the Red Hawk FLIGHT will commence in the future (when financial capacity allows).
