Event Details
Preschoolers at The Learning Experience®, the nation’s fastest growing Academy of Early Education for children six weeks to six years old, in Oldsmar will participate in the academy’s 5th Annual Nationwide BeCause Our Hearts Beat philanthropic initiative. Part of The Learning Experience’s first-of-its-kind proprietary philanthropy curriculum, the center will host an auction of heart-themed art created by the students to raise awareness and funds for Make-A-Wish®. The event is open to the public and will take place on February 16, 2017, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at 3933 Tampa Road in Oldsmar, Fla.
Tying the curriculum designed to teach the core tenets of selflessness, generosity, and giving, with Valentine’s Day and American Heart Month, all proceeds from the fundraiser will be donated to Make-A-Wish to help grant “wishes” of children diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions.
“BeCause Our Hearts Beat allows our students to use their creative talents and imaginations to help the community and those in need, which makes it one of the many philanthropic activities we look forward to each year,” said Jennifer Murray, Senior Vice President of Franchise Operations with The Learning Experience. “Additionally, our students are able to put into action the philanthropic lessons they learn consistently within our classrooms for a greater cause.”
In addition to raising thousands of dollars for various charities across the country, The Learning Experience Corporate has raised $1.5 million for Make-A-Wish® to-date, its partner in creating its unique philanthropy curriculum taught at the academy’s 170 operating locations nationwide. Make-A-Wish grants wishes for children diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions in the United States and its territories.
"We are thrilled to continue to drive initiatives and host events at our centers to benefit worthwhile charities that promote positive change in our communities, all while teaching children invaluable lessons of empathy and giving,” continued Mu
