Pinellas County based tutoring facility, Community Learning Center, has appointed Joy Gendusa as Chairman of the Board to run and oversee the growth and expansion of the organization.
Since its inception in 1998, Community Learning Center continues to have volunteers who keep the organization’s primary function going strong: free tutoring services for children and adults. For the past two years, Gendusa has been a local volunteer helping with marketing materials and fund raising activities as a board member.
When Community Learning Center’s founder, Holly Haggerty, was searching for a new chairman, she didn’t have to look far – Joy was her obvious choice.
“Joy has an amazing energy and is very innovative,” says Haggerty. “She inspires people to help, which is key when an organization depends so much on volunteer effort. She has also been extremely generous with her help and the help of her staff at PostcardMania by providing printing, input on our operations and so on. We are very lucky to have her on board!”
Plans for future expansion are already underway for the center. With the help of Gendusa and PostcardMania, Community Learning Center will get a new website, move into a new facility and expand their tutoring program to have many additional features including after-school programs, art, music and more.
