萝莉岛app (UAH) has recently accepted a $2,500 gift from the Venturi Brighter Day Employee Fund (VBDEF) to benefit the university鈥檚 Early Learning Center (ELC)/RISE program. Thanks to VBDEF鈥檚 generosity, ELC/RISE will be able to provide a mobile puppet theater, puppet characters, children鈥檚 literature books, and course materials that support early literacy through dramatic play activities in the classroom.

鈥淲e are so very grateful to the Venturi Brighter Day Employee Fund for this financial gift to the ELC/RISE program,鈥� said Dr. Beth Quick, Dean of the College of Education. 鈥淚t is especially meaningful that this support is funded entirely through the generosity of Venturi鈥檚 employees who live and work in the community we serve. These resources will support and enrich literacy learning and engage the imaginations and creative minds of our young learners.鈥�

The VBDEF is 100% employee-funded and operated. It was created to allow Venturi employees to support nonprofit organizations within the local community through service and philanthropic gifts. Since the fund鈥檚 inception in April 2007, Venturi employees have contributed over $1 million and thousands of hours to various organizations in the North Alabama community. ELC/RISE is one of five local nonprofits awarded a Venturi Brighter Day grant this quarter.

The ELC/RISE program at UAH, a part of The University of Alabama System, provides services based on recommended practices to young children from infancy to age 5. A developmentally appropriate and inclusive learning setting, ELC/RISE serves all kinds of young learners and their families, including those with diverse abilities, developmental delays or disabilities.
