The Tampa Bay Times is a critical partner helping tell the stories of our children and families and connecting our mission to the greater Tampa Bay community.

We were thrilled to be invited by the Tampa Bay Times to take a walk-through of their space to see what items might benefit Creative Clay’s studios. We came out with a donation of 30 beautiful cushy office chairs, two enormous dry erase white boards and a great cork board for our studios. The member artists at Creative Clay absolutely love the comfortable chairs and our teachers are enjoying the large white boards as well. Thank you, Tampa Bay Times, for all you do for our community. We are so very grateful!

“Academy Prep is transforming the lives of underserved middle school students in our community. Thanks to our partnerships with organizations like the Tampa Bay Times, our scholars were able to have productive and stellar academic years even through the daunting protocols necessitated by the pandemic. Our scholars have continued to maintain success through high school, postsecondary school and throughout their careers because of the opportunities made available to them through our partners.”
