Children First Awarded $10,000 Grant from Suncoast Credit Union

The Giving Coast

Suncoast Credit Union has awarded Children First a $10,000 grant to provide scholarships for the most at-risk children and families in Sarasota County. Scholarships are one of the agency’s highest priorities, creating every opportunity for children living in poverty to make important cognitive, social, and developmental gains so they are on par with their peers and ready for success in Kindergarten and beyond. “In addition to providing comprehensive care and services for our children, scholarship support also allows parents and caregivers to receive the opportunities and education needed to work towards self-sufficiency and strengthen the entire family," says CEO Philip Tavill. "We are deeply grateful to Suncoast Credit Union for their partnership in transforming lives.”
