Haywood Community College Career & College Promise student Ezekiel MacMillan was recently awarded the third place National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE) Student Entrepreneur Award. 

The award is designed to recognize a currently enrolled student who has demonstrated innovative and creative accomplishments by executing their business concept in the marketplace. MacMillan’s company, DonRaven Clothing Co., was recognized at the 2016 NACCE conference in Sacramento, California.

MacMillan set out to create his own clothing line, serving a niche market currently underserved by North Carolina businesses. The end result is a line, which serves those that love the outdoors and wildlife.
