Launched in 2012 in partnership with four Immokalee nonprofits, the initiative deepens children's engagement in learning while improving their relationships with adults and contributes to better work habits and boosts students' self-esteem. Additionally, children whose parents may not be home when the school day ends find a safe, nurturing haven. Over the summer break, fun and educational activities reduce academic backsliding among children who otherwise would be idle. To date, more than 57,000 students have attended out-of-school programs, with
"Out-of-school time programs are not merely a break from education; they are a gateway to unlocking untapped potential, fostering holistic growth and shaping the leaders of tomorrow. NCEF is proud to partner with KeyBank Foundation on this important investment in our youth," said Maria Jimenez-Lara, NCEF's CEO.
The Out-of-School Time Initiative plans to use KeyBank's funding to expand and add depth to the programming that is currently provided. It will enable 40 students to attend this school year's Lorenzo Walker Technical College (LWTC) Spring Break camp where each day is focused on a different career. Funding will also be used toward its two-week summer camp, which will serve a total of 100 middle and high school students.
"At KeyBank, we believe in investing in our communities, with focus on low- and moderate-income populations and communities in our service area," said Michael Schneider, KeyBank Florida Market President and Key Private Bank Market Leader. "NCEF's programming for the students of Immokalee is an investment in our future leaders and workforce in Southwest Florida and we are proud to support their work."
KeyBank Foundation's grant is part of Key's community lending and investments across its national footprint supporting affordable housing and community development projects, home and small business lending in low- and-moderate income communities, and philanthropic efforts targeted toward education, workforce development and safe, vital neighborhoods.
