Beacon carrier saves $3,000 for his future

A lot of kids with newspaper routes save up for skateboards or first cars. Ex-Beacon carrier Michael Bross saved up for college.

More than $3,000 for college, in fact.

Bross, 19, is now a student at the University of Arizona in Tuscon. The $3,000 he saved in tips for delivering The Beacon helped to pay for his tuition and books for his first semester.

鈥淚 paid for a good chunk of my first semester of tuition; about a third of it,鈥 Bross said. 鈥淪o it definitely helped.鈥
