TLE Concord, MA Hosts a Charity Drive for the Holiday Season
The TLE Team
The Learning Experience in Concord is inviting children and the community to give back this Thanksgiving and throughout the holiday season with an upcoming charity drive and curriculum focused on philanthropy.
Richard Weissman, Co-founder, Chairman and CEO of The Learning Experience, has been selected to lead the Board of Directors for Make-A-Wish® Southern Florida. He will work with the board and Make-A-Wish team to fulfill the nonprofit’s mission of granting life-changing wishes to critically-ill children. His new role as board chair was effective January 2020 and will initially run through the organization’s 2020-2021 fiscal year.
Five-year-old Riley Chicino's tiny classroom chair has been empty since she was diagnosed with leukemia last summer. Riley's mother, Kaylie Manger, said the hospital stays and chemotherapy treatments have been a test of strength for her feisty daughter.
In partnership with the Make-A-Wish foundation, The Learning Experience's philanthropic curriculum is teaching young children the importance of kindness.
Two buses loaded with teachers, pupils, several parents and Christmas gifts rolled up to the La Casa Crisis shelter in Howell, and the preschool children from the Learning Experience school in South Lyon bounded off, happy and excited.
