Back-to-School Supply Drive successfully completed by HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital

HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital is proud to announce the successful completion of its Back-to-School Supply Drive, organized in partnership with local schools and the Pinellas Education Foundation. The drive resulted in enough donations to support 20 students in need with essential school supplies.

This initiative is part of HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital’s ongoing commitment to giving back to the community and supporting education in Pinellas County. The supplies collected include notebooks, pens, pencils, folders and other items necessary for a successful school year. The filled backpacks will be donated to help ensure that more students start the school year prepared.

“We are thrilled by the generosity of our colleagues and the community who came together to make this supply drive a success,” said Brent Burish, chief executive officer of HCA Florida Pasadena and St. Petersburg Hospitals. “Supporting education is a key part of our mission, and we are proud to contribute to the future of our community in this way.”

The Pinellas Education Foundation, known for its dedication to improving educational opportunities for students throughout the county, will help distribute the backpacks to the schools most in need. This collaboration underscores the strong community ties and shared values between HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital and the Pinellas Education Foundation.
