Joyner Family Insurance, a local independent insurance agency, recently presented a donation of $2,150 to the Early Learning Coalition of Sarasota County, as part of its “Help Our Community” Referral program.

The Early Learning Coalition of Sarasota County is a 501 (c)(3) organization who offers program services that equally benefit the child, parent and the childcare provider. The children ultimately benefit from being in high quality early learning environments, gaining skills for life and receiving appropriate developmental screenings and any needed follow up as well. The parents receive a number of services to support their goals as well as access to financial assistance with childcare costs, a wide range of parent education, literacy and child development information, and/or tools to choose quality care. The 100+ participating programs continue to reach approximately 5000 children, or 75% of all children in care.

We’re excited to support an organization that does so much for our Venice community and appreciate all of the referrals that make our “Help Our Community” referral program possible.
