United Foundation of Central Florida Receives Cutting-Edge Monitors Through Collaboration with InScribe Education and Online Learning Consortium
Orlando, FL – December 12, 2024 – The United Foundation of Central Florida, Inc. (UFCF) is proud to announce a meaningful partnership with InScribe Education, a leader in digital student support solutions, and the Online Learning Consortium (OLC). As part of this collaboration, UFCF has received a generous donation of monitors used during the 2024 OLC Accelerate Discovery Sessions. This initiative exemplifies the power of innovation, sustainability, and community collaboration to transform lives through education and access to technology.
The monitors, which played a pivotal role in the Discovery Sessions showcasing groundbreaking practices in digital learning, will now enhance UFCF’s programs that empower underserved students and families in Central Florida. This donation underscores InScribe’s and OLC’s shared commitment to sustainability and educational equity.
Sandra Fatmi-Hall, CEO & Executive Director of UFCF, expressed her gratitude, stating:
“This incredible donation from InScribe Education and OLC could not have come at a better time. Access to technology is often a barrier for the families we serve, and these monitors will be instrumental in creating new opportunities for our students. They will help foster learning environments where young minds can thrive and grow. On behalf of UFCF and the community, I extend my heartfelt thanks to InScribe and OLC for their generosity and commitment to making a lasting impact.”
Danielle Bonner, Senior Director at InScribe, shared:
“We are delighted to partner with UFCF and OLC to give these monitors a second life. Sustainability and education are core to our mission, and we believe this donation will empower students to unlock their potential while positively impacting the local community.”
About the OLC Accelerate 2024 Conference
Celebrating 30 years of advancing digital learning, the OLC Accelerate 2024 Conference centered on the theme “30 Years of Magic: Envisioning a New Era of Digital Learning.” Held from November 18–21, 2024, in Orlando, FL, the event brought together leaders, educators, and innovators to explore effective practices and research in online and blended education. Discovery Sessions—a key feature of the conference—focused on inclusive design, integrating AI and emerging technologies to enhance learning for diverse populations, including military and adult learners. These sessions empower educators to adapt to the rapidly evolving digital education landscape.
Sustainability and Social Impact
Every year, conference equipment often goes unused after events, contributing to waste. Through its partnership with OLC, InScribe addresses this challenge by sponsoring equipment for Discovery Sessions and donating it to organizations like UFCF, extending the life of valuable resources.
Sandra Fatmi-Hall added:
“This partnership highlights the importance of sustainability and community-centered giving. It’s a perfect example of how organizations can come together to make a difference beyond the conference room.”
