Martin Luther King said "What are you doing for others?" That challenge is realized daily at the Community Tampa Bay with multiple programs that make a difference in Tampa Bay. RadioStPete.com news Director Nanette Wiser spoke to Community Foundation of Tampa Bay CEO Tammy Briant Spratling about their history and programs. https://www.communitytampabay.org/

In 2005, they became became an independent 501(c)3 and adopted the name Community Tampa Bay. In addition to their advocacy and ongoing educational programs, the 2024 ANYTOWN® program just completed another successful summer. "This program designed to give YOU the power to change your school and community. ANYTOWN® is facilitated by both youth and adults, and is a great way to jumpstart or advance your leadership skills. Secondly, ANYTOWN® is a fun experience away from all the other stress of life. We play games, hang out in college dorms, enjoy all-you-can-eat-food three times a day, meet new people, and talk about ourselves! Did we mention it is completely free?" All youth 14-18 in the Tampa Bay area are encouraged to apply. There is no grade, GPA, extracurricular, income, behavioral requirement or exception. We intentionally accept a diverse class of 60 students for each session with respect to gender, sex, age, race, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, faith, class and abilities.
MISSION The mission of Community Tampa Bay is to cultivate inclusive leaders to change communities through dialogue and cross-cultural interaction. The non-profit empowers people with the tools to have hard conversations with others who don’t look like them, live like them, or love like them to create a community free from all forms of discrimination. Their programs train and cultivate individuals who make a difference in institutions and communities by influencing others through dialogue and cross-cultural interactions. "We can effect positive change when we have leaders across identities who influence culture and interrupt systemic institutional discrimination through personal relationships, advocacy, and representation. We envision a community free from discrimination in which every individual is treated with dignity and respect, with regard to their race, ethnicity, nationality, sex, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, ability, faith, and or age."
