The Giving Coast

The Community Foundation of Sarasota County has appointed Nicole Light as the Education Officer of Community Impact, a new role designed to further develop and enhance the foundation’s support for educational opportunities across the community.

Light will work closely with Kirsten Russell, Vice President of Community Impact. Light has spent the last 18 years of her professional career as a high school English teacher in both Manatee and Sarasota County Schools, with her most recent teaching experience at Pine View School, where she spent 15 years teaching 10th grade Honors English and Advanced Placement Literature.
