"For 12 years, we've seen great success in our educational programs that offer a prevention-based approach to violence and bullying to educators by addressing behavior and character proactively," says Karen Conley, founder and CEO of Charity for Change. "With this grant, we will be able to strengthen and build our own successful program and impact more students."

Charity for Change in 2008 started with two in-school programs in Collier County. Since then, the organization has served more than 62,000 children in Florida and several other states in afterschool, summer school, in-school and pre-school settings. Pre- and post-tests of children participating in the Charity for Change Afterschool Program at Guadalupe Center in Immokalee for the 2018-2019 school year showed an increase in character trait knowledge of 40%.
