NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 29, 2004
Nissan North America, Inc. is expanding its support of education with a $10,000 donation to a program connecting high school students with professionals in the music industry.
Nissan executives, along with help from the GRAMMY nominated group Bering Strait, presented the check to the GRAMMY In The Schools program at the Nashville International Auto & Truck Show. GRAMMY In The Schools educates high school students about the music industry providing them an opportunity to interact with music professionals representing a wide range of careers.
"Nissan is proud to be part of such an outstanding program that helps young people follow their dreams," said Bill Alexander, dealer operations manager for Middle Tennessee. "Nissan has long been a supporter of programs like GRAMMY In The Schools that helps you people achieve the career objectives."
Nissan actively participates in community-based organizations, and funds programs that reflect the diverse interests of our employees and customers and improves the quality of life in communities across America.
"We are delighted with Nissan's support of GRAMMY In The Schools," said Nancy Shapiro, vice president, Recording Academy. "GRAMMY In The Schools connects high school students with music industry professionals and provides them information about career opportunities in music related fields. Nissan's generous donation will assist in achieving these goals."
Bering Strait received their first GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Instrumental Performance for their original composition "Bering Strait" in January of 2003. The group is also the subject of a 90-minute documentary film that reveals their journey to Nashville from their hometown of Obninsk, Russia.
In North America, Nissan's operations include automotive styling, engineering, consumer and corporate financing, sales and marketing, distribution and manufacturing.
