Pine Bluff Police Department’s Police and Youth (PAY) Camp

East Harding Construction is proud to support programs that invest in the next generation!

We were honored to be a sponsor for this year’s Pine Bluff Police Department’s Police and Youth (PAY) Camp, where approximately 80 young participants celebrated their graduation after five weeks of building leadership skills, character and positive connections with local law enforcement.

One of the most inspiring moments of the ceremony was recognizing former PAY Camp participants who returned this summer to give back as volunteers. Brandon Brown, Adrianna Logan and Christian Lovett served as full-time volunteers and were each awarded $2,000 scholarships made possible through generous donations from East Harding Construction, Assistant Police Chief Shirley Warrior, Warrior Environmental and Fosters Towing and Recovery.

Congratulations to all of this year’s graduates and scholarship recipients! We are proud to support programs that strengthen our communities, inspire future leaders and create opportunities for young people to succeed.
