“We know it is challenging times with the COVID-19 pandemic, but we know that out of every bad comes something good and this donation will assist to propel the students of Parkway Wee Care School on the path forward, especially with the STEM program and coding. It is certainly our pleasure, on behalf of the VM Foundation and Victoria Mutual, to present these computers,” stated Rochester-Lloyd.
This donation will assist the school to provide increased internet access to more students, as part of VM’s continued commitment to support youth education in the communities which the VM organization serves. The donated computers were taken out of service from the VM Florida office and refurbished to deliver efficient performance, making them suitable for use at the school.
The presentation was made at Parkway Baptist Church, where the Reverend Donald Lawrence, who is the Pastor, accepted the donation. “We salute VMBS on their commitment to good stewardship, stewardship in maximizing the use of their equipment which uses up resources of the earth, and also to assist those who need this kind of support and we certainly do and appreciate receiving this donation,” commented Lawrence.
As an outreach arm of Parkway Baptist Church, the Wee Care School and Kindergarten Center caters to children, ages 1 to 6. The school has been serving the community for over 35 years. The environment not only facilitates the educational and physical development of children, but their spiritual development, as well.
