VÄXA INTERNATIONAL DONATES COMPUTER MONITORS TO "COMPUTERS FOR KIDS" PROGRAM

This worldwide leader in the nutraceutical industry partners with this valuable Hillsborough County program

(Tampa, FL) Växa International, a leading manufacturer of homeopathic medicine, vitamins and nutritional supplements, recently donated computer monitors to "Computers for Kids,” a Hillsborough County program that encourages donations of used computers to recreation centers for youngsters to use during after-school and summer programs. Hillsborough County Commissioner Jim Norman started this program in 1996; computer labs are now available in every recreation center.

“We’re honored to have the opportunity to partner with this vital program,” says Gerry David, president of Växa International. “Växa is a family-minded and community-oriented company; I can’t think of anything more important than working together to promote child welfare.”

An important part of Växa International’s mission is giving back to the community, explains William H. Harper, chairman and CEO of Växa International. “It’s inspiring to see dedicated people involved in worthy causes that make a difference in so many lives. We’re grateful to be able to play a part and give back to the communities we serve. Växa has made a concrete commitment to play an integral role in the community in which we live and work and we will continue to actively pursue and fulfill that role.”

“We’re delighted to partner with Växa,” says Kim Cannella, facility manager for Perrone Recreation Center in Tampa, where the computer equipment was distributed. “These new monitors are invaluable to us. We can’t offer our children access to these vital programs without the support of businesses like Växa.”
