“This is a unique sponsorship for the COA and very exciting for us to be affiliated with an organization committed to environmental support,” said COA Associate Commissioner Stu Van Horn. “We hope that many of our member colleges will develop localized partnerships with DonationsInk.com and promote their services to nearly three million adult students and staff statewide,” he said.
