- Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL (1888PressRelease) August 31, 2021 - The Global Community Tennis program was created to provide youth in the community with lessons in the game that changed the founder’s life, tennis. Since it’s creation in 2007, Global Community Tennis delivered free tennis lessons by providing professional tennis coaches during 8-week programs. This is done at no cost to the families of the children. The program helps the Pinellas County kids develop social skills and the drive to succeed in life.
The International Day of Charity was established in 2012 to recognize the role of charity in alleviating humanitarian crises and human suffering within and among nations. The date of 5 September was chosen to commemorate the passing of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979.
“Global Community Tennis is providing for these children what they wouldn’t otherwise have,” said Gertie Perry, Activities Director for the Clearwater Community Volunteers Center.” “Its all done on a volunteer basis for the purpose of helping today’s youth as humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard wrote in the book The Way to Happiness, ‘Today’s children will become tomorrow’s civilization… They need love and help to make it.’”

Guests will be seating socially distanced and masks will be required when not eating. Guests are asked to bring a donation to support Global Community Tennis in exchange for an entry fee.
