Giving Back
We are in the business of building solutions that support student success and strengthen communities. That passion extends beyond our work and into our very own communities. Giving back is vital to all of us. Across the country and in Eastern TN, we lend our services to volunteer, donate, and conduct meaningful research.
Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee
At the home office in Maryville, TN, we work closely with Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee to raise funds and donate our time, working together to end hunger. 1 in 8 people in Eastern Tennessee live in poverty and have difficulty meeting basic needs. Second Harvest Food Bank is trying to change that statistic in 18 East Tennessee counties. Read about our latest research project in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank.
Family Promise
of Blount County
We also work closely with Blount County Family Promise in Maryville, TN. Blount County Family Promise helps families find shelter, food, and people who will help take care of them. After the family has completed their Family Shelter program, they can acquire their Transitional Housing program. Blount County Family Promise also helps families find reliable transportation to travel to work. They have helped 2,533 families find homes.
In addition to the non-profits listed above, P2C supports the following:
Boys’ Latin of Philadelphia, a stellar charter school that supports grades 6th through 12th, with an enrollment of 800 students (325 middle-school students and 475 high-school students).
Champs Missions in Haiti where P2C supported the construction of the Champs Medical Clinic in Haiti, and was the main financial contributor supporting a Haitian children’s educational center.
Junior Achievement of East Tennessee where P2C supported regional programs, like Junior Achievement BizTown (a program that brings “Economics to Life!” for 5th graders across East TN) and JA Miss Business (a program designed to support young women perusing business and leadership).
