Donald Bren, The Irvine Co.’s chairman who has opened his pocketbook to education for years, has done so again in helping drive vital after-school programs in Santa Ana and elsewhere. He donated $8.5 million recently to the Orange County-based THINK Together after-school program serving Southern California. In Orange County, Santa Ana Unified will benefit; throughout Southern California, an additional 10,000 students will be served, thanks to the donation.
The nonprofit provides relevant, academically oriented after-school curriculum for low-income students. Often, it is what happens after regular school hours that makes a difference for children who just need a little push.
