Speaker: Tia Gannon, President/Founder of School Rocks Party Box
Bio: Tia Gannon is the founder and director of School Rocks Party Box. What began as an idea in 2016 to provide holiday parties to a single classroom in a disadvantaged school, has today grown to serving 4 elementary schools and over 1,200 children. Her goal is for these students to have a similar school experience that her own children are fortunate to have. This means providing each of these 1,200 students with things they otherwise would not have – their own school supply kit, basic personal hygiene items, access to books at home, classroom activities and holiday parties, as well as funding and supporting the school’s programs that support positive behavior, attendance and being a good school citizen.
