Community Foundation of Sarasota County Awards Grant

The expansion of our Freedom School is thanks to a $200,000 grant from the Marilyn G. Harwell Fungible Fund, a component fund of the Community Foundation of Sarasota County. In addition, we received a grant through the Community Foundation of Sarasota County Allen Wirtz Nobbe and Jo Bowen Nobbe Fund in the amount of $10,000 to directly support the work at the Roy McBean Boys & Girls Club this summer.
