RCMA raises $1.5M for new charter academy construction
Fifth Avenue South retail/office building sells for $29.5M
Immokalee-based RCMA raised $1.5 million, unlocking a dollar-for-dollar match from an anonymous family foundation, resulting in a total of $3 million raised for its Mulberry Community Academy construction project. The funding propels RCMA closer to its vision of building a 22,000-square-foot, environmentally sustainable, dual-language community academy serving grades K-8. Located in Mulberry, MCA is designed to provide high-quality education to up to 300 children, focusing on low-income rural families. RCMA is a nonprofit provider of early childhood education and a nationally recognized charter school operator.
