Bill of Rights Institute and Konica Minolta Partner to Support 50,000 Civics and History Students
Civics and history teachers will have a fresh supply of free pocket constitutions to help their students study America’s founding documents.
And it is all thanks to the generosity of Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (Konica Minolta).
The Bill of Rights Institute announced today that Konica Minolta, a market leader in office technology solutions, has agreed to support the Institute’s Power of the Printed Word campaign.
Through Power of the Printed Word, the Bill of Rights Institute delivers “pocket constitutions” to classrooms throughout the United States. These portable booklets include copies of America’s founding documents, including the Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution, and Bill of Rights, and civics and history teachers depend on these classroom resources every year.
Konica Minolta is providing financial support that will help distribute 50,000 pocket constitutions to classrooms.
“We are extremely honored and proud to support the Bill of Rights Institute in their mission to drive high-quality civic education, and excited to help bring this important piece of our history to students,” said Jason Dizzine, Vice President, Portfolio Management and Planning, Konica Minolta. “As a leader in office equipment as well as production and industrial print, at Konica Minolta we truly believe in the power of print. This partnership opportunity perfectly combined that outlook with our ongoing commitment to invest in the education of our future leaders.”
Bill of Rights Institute President and CEO David Bobb thanked Konica Minolta for its leadership in supporting America’s civics and history classrooms.
“We all have a stake in educating America’s youth and helping them become informed, civically engaged members of society,” Bobb said. “We deeply appreciate Konica Minolta’s commitment to supporting educators and young people all across our great nation.”
