Giving Back
STUDENTS CONNECTING IN LOCAL COMMUNITY
At GGGA, building strong character is a the heart of what
we believe to be important in junior athlete and community
service is an important part of our program. Giving back
provides a sense of self-fulfillment. We want students
to experience this so GGGA students must complete a
minimum of twenty-five hours of community service annually.
Throughout the school year, we offer many opportunities for
students to help the local community. GGGA house parent,
Kassi Bravo, coordinates volunteer activities and attends all
volunteer activities with students.
In November, Special Olympics Florida hosted the 2018
Unified Champion Schools Basketball Tournament at The
Big House in Tavares, Florida. GGGA students volunteered
and worked in shifts throughout the two-day tournament.
They kept track of the scorecard and the scoreboard during
games. When not keeping score, students helped out by
catching balls around the courts. In between games, students
enjoyed playing on the unused courts.
Thank you, Damian, Fran, Karen, Hanna, Harry, Kerry,
Leo, Madeline, Arantza, and Tina for giving back!
