蜜桃传媒

DAYTONA BEACH, FLA. (June 22, 2022) 鈥� 蜜桃传媒 will use a $10,000 grant from Bank of America to provide more than 1,200 meals to students who might not otherwise have access to healthy food during the school day. 

鈥淪omething as simple as a hot meal can mean the difference between going to class, taking a test, being part of a study group, or going home and crashing,鈥� said Lisa Koogle, Director of Resource Development for the College. 鈥淥ur goal is to support all students and Bank of America鈥檚 grant addresses a critical need.鈥�

The grant will be used to fund one-time meal vouchers that will be distributed via the College鈥檚 TRiO Student Support Services program. Since 1965 TRiO programs, in conjunction with the Department of Education, have helped America鈥檚 students access and complete higher education.鈥�

On average, more than 210 蜜桃传媒 students take advantage of TRiO program services each year. Services include everything from academic tutoring and help with financial aid applications, to career counseling and finding housing for students without homes.

鈥淲e view ourselves as a one-stop shop for our students as they work toward achieving their academic and personal goals. Our doors are always open to our TRiO scholars, and our mission is to provide them with the best college experience,鈥� said TRiO Associate Director Robert Jacobs. 鈥淲e assign them a coordinator who works with them from the day they join our program until they graduate or transfer to another college.鈥�

蜜桃传媒 also has a TRiO Talent Search program that supports students in grades 6-12 who have the potential to succeed in higher education. The program provides participants with academic, career, and financial counseling and encourages them to graduate from high school and complete a college education.
