PRINCETON, IN (WFIE) -

A Princeton, Indiana organization received a $10,000 check from Duke Energy today.

Communities In Need Of Development Corporation is an organization dedicated to help people upgrade their lives.

The check will go to funding the employment workforce skills enhancement and training program, which is held at the local Ivy Tech branch.

It allows unemployed Gibson County residents free workforce training.

If you are employed or an out of county resident, you can attend the program for a $25.

"This is for everyone who wants to get the opportunity to better themselves and become employed. Employability skills in rural areas is an obstacle," said George Jackson Jr., CINDC president.

If you are interested in entering the program, you can call 812-664-2250. They are trying to get everyone enrolled by January.
