“Eight Keys To A Better Me”  is a sponsored book program by Eastex Telephone Cooperative Inc.  to second graders in the Henderson School systems.  This book lists and illustrates eight key traits which could influence children in their character development that will lead to a better self-image, to better relationships with others, and to a better life.  The eight traits it focuses on are; Honesty, Respect, Patriotism, Kindness, Courage, Responsibility, Feelings, and Self Worth.  We purchase these books from a company called Family Traditions out of Gastonia, NC and they are then distributed to the children. By reading these thank you letters from the students in our community, it is clear that they have benefited from the book and Eastex is proud to help in any way possible!

Eastex is a big supporter of the local 4H and FFA students who are looking to better their future by raising livestock.  These students are learning what it means to have a responsibility.  What it means to gain personal development skills.  Most importantly, what it means to earn something by hard work and timeless efforts.  Most of these students put their earnings towards a college education.  Through these organizations,  students are enriching their lives and Eastex is here to help!  These are some of the thank you letters Eastex has received and we are so grateful and honored to have helped.
