NAPLES, Fla. - Feb. 3, 2023 - PRLog -- Charity for Change received a $16,572 grant from St. John's Episcopal Church in Naples to expand programming to improve the emotional well-being and academic performance for at-risk students, with a focus in Immokalee, East Naples, Golden Gate and Everglades City.

"We are grateful for the partnership with St. John's Episcopal Church to promote the education, health and emotional well-being of children in our community," said Karen Conley, founder and CEO for Charity for Change. "As a challenge grant, St. John's Episcopal Church is inviting our community to join them by matching their commitment to advancing our mission. Decades of research show that our program teaches life skills that build resiliency and success in school, future careers and life. This is particularly important for at-risk children from low-income households because they develop academic and social skills significantly slower than children from higher socioeconomic groups, leading to a never-ending cycle of poverty."

The scientifically proven elements of the Charity for Change program bring character education, STEAM, and service learning to life. The program uses research-based strategies for implementing behavior change, including role-play practice, modeling, direct instruction of social skills, and giving back to the community through volunteering, service learning, or giving.
