    GPPCA is once again proud to have been awarded funds from the St. Petersburg Police Department Forfeiture Grant Program, 2020. The funds have traditionally been used to host in-person youth summits. With COVID-19, the Association pivoted to sponsoring at-needs pantries maintained by schools within Greater Pinellas Point.

    On Monday, August 23, GPPCA President Barbara Ellis (third from left), Vice President Stephen Waters (fourth from left), and Director and project manager Danny E. White (second from left), delivered backpacks stuffed with essential supplies to Lakewood High School (Florida) Principal Erin Savage. The school has a robust at-need student pantry that serves deserving scholars. Go Spartans!

    Whether the Tampa Bay Area has been home for a long or short time, hurricanes and tropical storms are a reality. This is especially true during the Atlantic Hurricane Season, June 1 through November 30, 2021.

    Now is the time to refresh storm preparedness survival kits and dust off evacuation plans. There is no such thing as being 'over prepared!' 

    To help, the Greater Pinellas Point Civic Association (GPPCA) recommends consulting official resources for facts about storm awareness and preparedness. Here are two such resources:
