Broward County Coke Florida Reps Donate Technology To Children's Harbor's New Learning Center

PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. - Dec. 3, 2024 - PRLog -- Children's Harbor welcomed Coca-Cola Beverages Florida, LLC representatives and local state legislators to its main campus at 19425 SW 58th Manor, Southwest Ranches in Pembroke Pines, FL. This visit was uniquely special, as Coke Florida presented an in-kind gift of 14 laptops, branded wireless headphones and a mobile charging cart that will be used for Children's Harbor's new learning center.

The generous donation will equip the new Education Center at Children's Harbor with resources for teens in foster care to support their academic growth. Children's Harbor has licensed educators onsite to assist teens with remote learning as they work towards their individual learning goals and become independent adults.

"We are incredibly grateful to have received this generous donation from the Coke Florida team," said Tiffani Dhooge, President and CEO of Children's Harbor. "This significant contribution will make a profound difference in the lives of the children we serve. With these new resources, we can enhance our students' learning experiences through cutting-edge digital tools and technologies. This will empower them to develop the knowledge and skills they need to grow into educated, self-sufficient, and successful adults. We are honored by Coke Florida's commitment to supporting children's education and well-being in our community. This donation represents a transformative investment in the futures of our young people."

Children's Harbor's focus is to break cycles and change the lives of teens in foster care. The donation of laptops from Coke Florida has helped with this overarching goal. The family support services program prevents kids from coming into foster care by providing free in-home counseling and support to families who are struggling in the community.

"Coke Florida is continuously seeking out ways to further support our local communities and build upon our dedication to education," said Terrence Gee, Senior Vice President, Technology & Enterprise Transformation, Coke Florida. "Providing access to resources like laptops is just the beginning. It's a catalyst for educating, encouraging, and demystifying technology, ultimately allowing digital fluency to flourish in the ways underserved students need it most. This is how Coke Florida is helping to prepare the future generation for success."
