Dear Community Partners,
The holiday season is here, bringing much needed joy to our community. I have always been one to practice gratitude, a useful skill in promoting well-being. This year, I am especially appreciative of the holiday decorations and the light they bring, somehow brighter after a season that disrupted electricity for so many. As we heal from the impact of the hurricanes, there are still families reaching out for additional assistance. The Children’s Board continues to process Emergency Funding requests to support non-profits in addressing the hurricane recovery needs for children and families.
I am pleased to acknowledge the agencies that have been awarded emergency funding thus far, which include Oasis Opportunities, Gentlemen’s Quest, Born to Care, Positive Spin, Better Together Strengthening Families, Crisis Center of Tampa Bay, and Children’s Network of Hillsborough.
