Donated School Supplies are Sweeter than Honey to Bee’s Learning, Inc.
The Clearwater Community Volunteers Center donates enough school supplies to Bee's Learning, Inc. to satisfy the educational needs of 40 low-income children within the mobile tutoring program.
- (1888PressRelease) October 10, 2019 - Clearwater, Fl - On Tuesday, October 8, Bee’s Learning of St. Petersburg received enough school supplies for 40 children. The donations came from engaged citizens who attended a tea party for just this purpose at the Clearwater Community Volunteers (CCV) Center in downtown Clearwater.
Bee’s Learning is a mobile tutoring program founded in 2017 by educator Leah Veal. Bee’s Learning seeks to furnish one-on-one tutoring to low income Pinellas County students who are getting a “C” or lower in their classes. The tutoring is done in an RV-turned-classroom, which goes to the neighborhoods of the students they serve. Certified teachers volunteer their time and effort to the program. The school supplies will be used by the children participating in the Bee’s Learning program, thus helping to achieve the mission of Bee’s Learning: increasing literacy rates across the state of Florida.
“The Bee’s Learning program is made possible by the hard work of volunteer teachers who care about the future of our youth,” said Michael Soltero, the Director of the Clearwater Community Volunteers Center. “Often times teachers have to pull out their wallet to provide school supplies to their classrooms, so we thought we could help alleviate that cost.”
Bee’s Learning will be hosting their Annual Queen Bee Sunday Tea at 4 pm on October 13, 2019 at Nova 535 in St. Petersburg. Those looking to support the program can do so by becoming a corporate sponsor or purchase a ticket at www.beeslearning.org.
Serving as a no-cost event venue and meeting space for Tampa Bay nonprofits, the CCV Center facilitates the growth of their community outreach through fundraisers and supply drives.
The next event in the CCV Center will be the Hispanic Heritage Open House where families can enjoy family fun and complimentary refreshments.
