Fort Myers, FL, July 27, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Collier County School Board candidate Louise Penta is pleased to announce that she has received several key endorsements in her campaign for the District 2 seat in the August 30 election.

In just over two months on the campaign trail, Penta has raised over $60,000 in her bid for the school board seat. This amount has far outpaced the amounts raised by any of the other candidates.
