Beach Babes give donation to Beach Elementary
Members of the Beach Babes recently presented Beach Elementary School with a check for $700 at its Oak Street location. The Beach Babes, a group of 16 women who live on Fort Myers Beach and like to support the local community, took a tour of the elementary school and enjoyed lunch with some of the children.
The donation will be used to purchase computer software and site licenses for programs that will be used by the students. One such program allows the students to compete in real time against children all over the world on math problems. The Beach students have become very proficient in math and know their math facts extremely well, due to their use of this program, according to Renee Mulloy, the administrative secretary of the school.
“We were looking for a way to come up with the money to purchase the site license again for next year, and our friends from the Beach Babes have provided the solution,” she said.
