Ginger has been the Executive Director of OASIS Network for the past 8 years. Her experience with OASIS began as a volunteer shortly after friends of hers founded the small grass-roots non-profit in 2001, and she later joined the board. Under Ginger’s guidance, OASIS Network has grown from one warehouse site serving school social workers, to four sites, scattered strategically around the large Hillsborough County, and currently serves approximately 11,000 students per year. She described to us the OASIS mission which is to:

“Provide at-risk students in Hillsborough County public schools with basic necessities such as gently used school clothing, new uniform clothing, socks, underwear, shoes, hygiene items.”

#HelpingOurCity, Ginger does amazing work for the children in our community, but could use a helping hand. Consider putting some time into helping Ginger and the OASIS Network, and contact Ginger Bean at http://www.oasis-network.org or at gingstubean@aol.com!
