Touchstone Energy Student of the Month: Sanders from Linton Public School

In strides to support local students and schools, KEM Electric Cooperative is awarding a monetary donation to students across the service territory through our Touchstone Energy Cooperative® Student of the Month program. Emma Sanders was named the December Touchstone Energy Student of the Month. She is the daughter of KEM Electric members, Marcy and Gary Sanders. Sanders is a senior at Linton Public School. She is active in 4-H, serves as a stat keeper for both boys' basketball and football, and is involved in National Honor Society and FCCLA. 

“Emma is an outstanding young lady who consistently demonstrates compassion and care for those around her,” says Sander’s nominator. “Emma has a genuine passion for supporting younger children and enjoys visiting with and assisting her elderly neighbors with tasks they need assistance with.” 

Sanders plans to use the funds towards Linton Lion’s Den, which provides students in need with clothing, snacks and other necessities.   

Throughout the school year, KEM Electric chooses one student at random who has been nominated from the schools in KEM Electric’s service area to receive monetary sponsorship in partnership with Touchstone Energy Cooperative. The sponsorship money can be utilized for the student’s choosing for school activities. 

In January, KEM Electric is accepting nominations for students from Napoleon Public School. The deadline for nominations is Jan. 15. This sponsorship is open to any K-12 student.
