On January 20, 2020, Mr. Charles (Chuck) Evanoff, representing the FirstEnergy Foundation, presented Taylor Diversion Programs (TDP) with a check for $3,500.00 to be used in support of TDP’s general operations. According to Mr. Evanoff, “Your [TDP’s] initiatives align with FirstEnergy Foundation’s focus on organizations within our service area that support our priorities to help improve the vitality of our communities, promote local and regional economic development, advance an educated workforce by supporting STEM initiatives, and support FirstEnergy employees’ community leadership and volunteer interests.” TDP and the Lighthouse Island Academy Private Academy School greatly appreciate FirstEnergy Foundation’s effort to continue to support the many programs and activities offered to our students. These include, but are not limited to: Community Service, Welding, Archery, Fly Fishing, Hunting, Camping, Canoeing, Resident Artists/Musicians, and the like.
Indeed, we are proud to, again, partner with the FirstEnergy Foundation and graciously thank them for the confidence they have shown in our TDP program and students! We look forward to our continued work together!
