Post Avenue Preschool Receives Grant From The Hambrick Foundation
Brookville Center for Children’s Services (BCCS) was awarded a $4,937 grant by The Hambrick Foundation on May 8 to assist the Post Avenue Preschool with the development of a sensory room.
Bobby Hambrick, Founder and Board Member of The Hambrick Foundation, along with Holly Tatum, Program Director and Board Member, presented the award to BCCS Senior Director Debra Doyle, CEO Stanfort Perry, Chief Operating Officer Chris O’Connor, and Chief Administrative Officer Barry Donowitz.
The funds will equip the preschool’s sensory room with innovative tools such as a bubble tube, UV fiber optic sensory lighting, and a marble panel. Post Avenue provides instruction and therapies to dozens of students with developmental delays and disabilities. The space and tools are specifically designed to aid in sensory integration and learning, by providing a supportive environment for students.
“We are so very thankful to The Hambrick Foundation for their commitment to young learners,” said Debra. “This sensory room will be a place where our students can explore their environment, safely engage, grow, learn, and thrive. Thank you for helping us create a space where every child can develop and explore new ways of learning.”
