The Greater Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce held the annual<br />

Champions of Education Breakfast on August 8th. The<br />

Chamber Charities Foundation provided $500 Office Depot gift<br />

cards to the Principals of all of Delray Beach’s schools to help<br />

out with school supplies. The Breakfast was sold out with 250<br />

people in attendance bringing together City Officials, Educators<br />

and the local business community. Tony Carvajal, Executive Vice<br />

President of the Florida Chamber Foundation in Tallahassee was<br />

the Keynote speaker.<br />

Kae Jonsons, Director of Development and Community Relations<br />

at the Delray Beach Public Library and Chair of the Chamber’s<br />

Education Committee worked hard with her team to organize<br />

the event. She explains her commitment, “Grade-level<br />

reading, literacy and work-force readiness are critical issues<br />

facing Education today and are concerns of the business community.<br />

The Delray Chamber supports the goals of the Florida<br />

Chamber to have 100% of these children prepared to enter the<br />

workforce and reading on Grade-level.”<br />

Afterwards, an Education Roundtable was held with City and<br />

County officials and the Chamber Education Committee to discuss<br />

ways to collaborate and assist our Delray Schools.<br />
