iTHINK Community Foundation impacts local community with ‘School Ready Days’ initiative
The iTHINK Community Foundation recently completed its annual School Ready Days initiative, providing 330 children in the Treasure Coast with essential school supplies, uniforms, backpacks, and haircuts to ensure they are fully prepared for the upcoming school year.
“At iTHINK Financial, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to succeed. Through School Ready Days, we’re proud to help local children start the school year confident and ready to learn,” said Stephen Johnson, AVP of Administration and Marketing at iTHINK Financial. “This program is one example of how we continue to invest in the future of our community, ensuring that all children have the resources they need to thrive academically.”
With a mission to improve the lives of children and families in the communities served by iTHINK Financial, the iTHINK Community Foundation hosted its annual School Ready Days initiative across Florida and Georgia from July 22 to August 5, 2025, empowering approximately 1,000 underserved children. In partnership with Head Start, the initiative provided vital school supplies and support, with 330 children in the Treasure Coast receiving direct assistance.
iTHINK Financial employees played a hands-on role in the success of this initiative by volunteering to unpack, sort, and assemble backpacks filled with essential items like markers, notebooks, glue sticks, and dental kits. These backpacks were then delivered to various locations in the Treasure Coast, including EOC Head Start Schools (Vero Beach), LAHIA (Stuart), Queen Townsend (Ft. Pierce), City of Fellsmere, and TCGC (Sebastian), where they were distributed to families in need.
The iTHINK Financial Community Foundation remains committed to supporting local families and providing children with the tools they need to build a brighter future. For more information, visit ithinkfi.org/community/foundation.
