OPD Mounted Patrol and Grand Cypress Hotel
Books Delivered Grand Avenue Primary Learning
Center On July 10, 2008 the Orlando Police Mounted Patrol
Unit, under the supervision of Sergeant Michelle Pearson, donated a trailer full
of books and children's items to the Grand Avenue Primary Learning Center (800
W. Grand Street) and the Adult Family Life Skills Project housed on their
campus.
The donation will provide books throughout the Parramore Heritage Area to
benefit the ongoing Literacy Project and Read to Achieve Program. These programs
benefit hundreds of children and adults. The books will be given to the
recipients free of charge and will provide them with the tools to gain literacy
skills and to spend quality family time together by reading and sharing.
These projects have an invaluable impact in our community and the citizens that
we serve. The books are treasures to both children and adults alike.
The partnership between the Orlando
Police Mounted Patrol Unit, the Grand Cypress Hotel and the "Little
Princesses" organization will make many wishes and dreams come
true with this enormous donation.
