EVENT RECAP
The ECRC came together in full force last night under the summer heat at the Akron RubberDucks game to support a great cause - rasing funds for the SPARK Kindergarten Reading Readiness Program. It was a great way to mark 25 years of the ECRC's impact, surrounded by dedicated staff and friends of the organizaation.
Our standout story is Evelyn, a bright 5-year-old who joined SPARK through Akron Public Schools last December. Her parent partner, Savanna, spoke about Evelyn’s eagerness to dive into her lessons and the incredible progress she’s made. Not only is she exceeding every expectation—her handwriting is outstanding! Evelyn had her glove ready and nerves of steel as she proudly took the mound to throw out the first pitch at last night’s game—a moment to remember!
Shout out to our presenting sponsor: Employers Health for making last night possible!
