Instruxo CEO joins effort to promote literacy in Central Florida
(Orlando, Fl., March 14, 2011) – Rafael Gerena, CEO of global consulting firm Instruxo LLC, has joined the advisory board of First Book Orlando. He will help raise money and awareness for First Book Orlando, a literacy group that buys books for low-income children who don’t have any. First Book Orlando is a local chapter of the Washington D.C.-based nonprofit, First Book.
First Book has distributed more than 80 million books and educational resources to programs and schools serving children throughout the United States and Canada. First Book is transforming the lives of children by making new, high-quality books available on an ongoing basis. Each $2 donation buys a new book.
In Orange County (Fl.), First Book Orlando has donated 17,000 books. Local book recipients have included Orange County Head Start; Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Florida; PACE Center for Girls.
“I can’t think of a better way to help children than to promote reading,” says Rafael, Instruxo’s CEO. “An interesting book unleashes hunger to learn more.”
In Central Florida, First Book Orlando is seeking donations to buy books, free exhibit space at community events, and a place to hold occasional meetings. It’s also seeking the donation of professional services such as printing, photography and graphic design.
