CleanSpark, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSK) (the “Company” or “CleanSpark”), a sustainable bitcoin mining and energy technology company, has established a scholarship at Gwinnett Technical College for five students seeking an associate degree in the computer sciences program (computer programming, cybersecurity, game development, networking specialist, and website development and design).

The CleanSpark Scholarship for Technological Innovation covers full tuition and books for five students. Students were awarded the scholarship during their 2021 winter break. Cybersecurity student Macy Bazzell was one of the five students selected for the scholarship.

“Continuing my education is my highest priority,” said Bazzell. “The CleanSpark Scholarship for Technological Innovation from the Gwinnett Tech Foundation will increase my ability to continue my education past the associate degree and allow me to continue to seize opportunities and expand my knowledge set. I hope to use my skills to advance myself, as well as others, while putting a little bit of good into the world.”

Glen Cannon, Gwinnett Technical College President. “The technical skills acquired in our computer science associate degree programs prepare students for meaningful and lucrative careers in any industry. We appreciate CleanSpark and their recognition of our commitment to building a sustainable, qualified workforce and were compelled to invest in our students and college.”
