100+ Women Who Care Help Children Succeed
When a community comes together, lives change. Support from 100+ Women Who Care South Tampa, along with generous contributions from CURA Freight and Suncoast Credit Union, is helping more children receive one-on-one tutoring and mentorship through the Classroom Grandparent program. This investment will help students build reading skills, confidence, and a stronger foundation for success in school and beyond.
After CURA Freight generously contributed an additional $5,000, the donation from 100+ Women Who Care South Tampa totaled $11,600, the highest contribution since the organization started! Suncoast Credit Union then matched both donations as part of our 2022 Match Campaign for a total of $33,600! Reading on grade level by the third grade is an important predictor of high school graduation; yet, only 50% of Hillsborough County third graders are achieving this benchmark. The contributions from 100+ Women Who Care, CURA Freight, and Suncoast Credit Union will help recruit, train, and place six Classroom Grandparents in kindergarten through third-grade classrooms, providing one-on-one tutoring and mentoring to support struggling students for the entire school year.
