NAPLES DAILY NEWS CORPORATE PARTNER Annual Report Sponsor Since our formation in 1923, Naples Daily News is proud to be actively involved in supporting programs and organizations that contribute to the culture and education of Southwest Florida. W e believe our community is a better place to live and work when growth and knowledge are fostered and shared. On the publishing side, we serve as a forum for the community to exchange ideas on local events and issues. Our platform of communication brings both citizens and businesses together to create a stronger, more informed community. We encourage a culture of philanthropy among our employees and strive to make all charitable contributions work to promote fundamental growth in the community. As we celebrate our 90th anniversary this year, the Naples Daily News is committed to its continuing mission of supporting the Southwest Florida community. Each year we work with more than 200 local organizations in Collier and south Lee counties, with our major areas of focus being education, literacy, health, human services and community. In addition to community organizations, we also support our own local chapter of Newspapers in Education. The Newspapers in Education (NIE) program is dedicated locally to strengthening literacy by providing more than 400 educators in Collier and south Lee counties with newspapers for their classrooms. 1100 Immokalee Road, Naples, FL 34110 naplesnews.com Pictured L to R: Samo Smrekar, Rocco Bovenzi Community Foundation of Collier County | cfcollier.org 51
