CB TECH ATTENDS OHIO STATE ATHLETIC’S NIL JOB FAIR
On October 16, 2023, The Eugene D. Smith Leadership Institute put on its annual Buckeye Futures Student Athlete Career + NIL Expo at the Covelli Center at The Ohio State University. Approximately 50 of the top companies nationally were in attendance and the event was invite only. CB Tech was one of the companies selected to attend this special event. The Chairman of CB Tech and NFL Hall of Famer Cris Carter said, “We were very honored to be selected to present our company in front of such high-quality student-athletes. Gene Smith is an incredible leader with incredible vision, and he cares deeply about Ohio State’s student athletes. The Buckeyes do it best!” Over 100 student athletes from across several sports were in attendance with resumes, business cards, and with a tremendous opportunity to network. “Being in attendance under any circumstances would’ve been great but being in attendance while currently being a contracted document destruction vendor of The Ohio State University made it even more meaningful,” CB Tech CEO Jeff Davis said.
The Buckeye Futures + NIL Fair is held every October and is exclusive to Ohio State student-athletes. The goal is for employers in attendance to offer information about their company and hopefully provide opportunities. “With CB Tech launching its internship program in the summer of 2024, this Fair couldn’t have come at a better time. We were so grateful to meet all of the talented student athletes who had interest in CB Tech!”, EVP Mekka Don said.
The Eugene D. Smith Leadership Institute’s mission is to provide leadership, character, and career development for all Ohio State student-athletes in order to best prepare them for life after graduation.

Salvation Army ‘drafts’ former Viking and Hall of Famer Cris Carter for new partnership
centralusa.salvationarmy.org / May 1, 2023
In the spirit of last weekend’s NFL player draft, The Salvation Army in the Twin Cities announces we have “drafted” former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver and Cris Carter, an NFL Hall of Fall inductee, broadcast analyst and entrepreneur. The Salvation Army chose Carter as our “first selection” because he’s passionate about our work — providing food, housing and emergency assistance to struggling families and those in need.
“People don’t know that The Salvation Army was there to help my family when I was growing up,” said Carter, a four-time All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowl selection. “My mom raised seven kids by herself, and the assistance she received was essential for us. I want to help make sure people are made aware of the important work done by The Salvation Army.”
Carter, who was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 2013, played for three NFL teams, but the most prolific work of his career was his 12 years with the Vikings from 1990-2001. He set and shares two NFL receiving records but, more incredibly, holds 13 Vikings records by himself and shares another six records with other Vikings players. In 1999 he was also recognized for his extensive philanthropic work in the community with the NFL’s Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.
“This is truly an honor to be in partnership with a legend like Cris, to help educate the Twin Cities about the work we do and how people can come along side us — be it as a volunteer or as a donor,” said Lt. Colonel Dan Jennings, Salvation Army Northern Division commander. “Without a doubt, this is the best ‘draft pick’ we’ve ever made.”
Carter will be involved in promoting Salvation Army initiatives like the annual Down For The Challenge urban rappelling fundraiser, the annual Back-To-School supply drive, and the Christmas Red Kettle bell-ringing and Rice Park Tree of Lights tree lighting.
“The Salvation Army is by nature a humble organization, so my goal is to make sure that Minnesotans know what a quality organization they are, and that they are worthy of our support,” Carter added. “The thousands of families they help every year would certainly tell you this.”
Are you Down for the Challenge? You can support The Salvation Army’s efforts to fight homelessness by donating to or participating in our Down for the Challenge urban rappelling event with the Minnesota Vikings. This adrenaline-pumping event takes place July 28–29 at the Omni Viking Lakes Hotel during Vikings training camp.
