ABE BROWN ANGEL ADOPTION PROGRAM
For over five years, the Greater Tampa Chapter of Jack and Jill of America, Inc. has partnered with Abe Brown Ministries in a chapter wide community service activity to support their annual Christmas Blessings program. Jack and Jill youth, mothers, fathers and associates come together to serve a hot meal and provide gift and clothing donations to over 65 children with incarcerated parents.
MLK DAY OF SERVICE
GTC has partnered with various agencies in the Tampa Bay area each year to provide assistance where needed. These activities are hands on and designed with our youth in mind. Some of our activities have included preparing and serving food, beautifying communities by planting, landscaping, and painting.
OUR VOICE OUR VOTE
From the Tiny Tots to the Teens, GTC has actively participated in Voter Registration Drives over the past few years. Our children have made signs and encouraged citizens to let their voice be heard.
MARCH OF DIMES
GTC partnered with the NICU of Tampa General Hospital, to assist in providing support to moms with babies in the intensive care unit. We collected and purchased items for the parents and the siblings. It was our goal to remove the worry of having to purchase basic items while staying in the NICU and to provide something special for the siblings. The culminating event for this project was a Mother’s day celebration, where we served and fellowshipped with the moms that have babies in the NICU.
