Children’s Home Network to Reach More At-Risk Children Thanks to a Suncoast Credit Union Foundation Grant
The Children’s Home Network has recently been awarded a generous funding gift from the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation to extend educational development to Tampa Bay children victimized by abuse, neglect and abandonment.
Tampa, FL, August 23, 2017 --(PR.com)-- The Children’s Home Network has recently been awarded a generous funding gift from the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation to extend educational development to Tampa Bay children victimized by abuse, neglect and abandonment.
The Suncoast Credit Union Foundation is a leader in our community for educational advocacy, with its initiatives supporting the education, health and emotional well-being of children in the communities it serves. Their mission closely aligns to that of the Children’s Home Network, a local 501 (C)(3) focused on improving lives and changing life stories and has led to a longstanding partnership over the years, positively impacting children and families who need it most.
The donated funds will be used as part of the Children’s Home Network’s academic CARES initiative and SEEDS program. CARES (Campus Activities, Recreation and Educational Services), provides continuous educational services to the at-risk children living in Kids Village residential treatment program. These funds will also prolong SEEDS (Supporting and Empowering Education and Developmental Services), an intervention program that works collaboratively with schools, family members and the community to ensure children are ready for kindergarten and on reading level by third grade.
The efforts of the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation’s philanthropic work with the Children’s Home Network extend beyond financial gifts, including volunteering and engagement through third-party events. The prosperous collaboration between this financial institute and charitable organization is vital to the academic success of the children in Tampa Bay.
