Amazon and VanTrust Real Estate made a donation of $10,000 to Mojave High School’s new manufacturing and robotics program to commemorate the celebration of the new Amazon fulfillment center in North Las Vegas.

Representatives of Clark County School District accepted the checks on behalf of the school in early April. Amazon’s donation will give students the chance to learn about the technology that will be used in Amazon facilities across the country.

When complete, Amazon’s new 800,000-square-foot fulfillment center in North Las Vegas will be the among the largest in the area with more than 1,000 full-time employees.
