Partnership delivers classroom resources to teachers nominated by their own communities
MIAMI, FL — March 2026 — One Park Financial has joined forces with Orange Bowl Cares to support “Tag a Teacher,” a community-driven initiative that spotlights outstanding South Florida educators and equips their classrooms with the resources students need to succeed.
The program invites parents, students, and community members to nominate—or “tag”—teachers who are making a measurable difference in their schools. Selected educators receive supplies and funding to address the real needs of their classrooms, from updated learning materials to technology and hands-on project resources.
As a presenting partner, One Park Financial is helping expand the initiative’s reach and ensure more teachers receive the support they deserve.
“At One Park Financial, we believe in investing in the dreams of our communities—and that starts with the educators who shape our children’s futures. Teachers pour their time, creativity, and heart into the classroom every single day, and we’re honored to stand behind them through this partnership.”
John Lie-Nielsen, CEO, One Park Financial
Members of the One Park Financial team—proudly known as “Grovies”—rolled up their sleeves to make the partnership personal, visiting local schools, celebrating nominated teachers, and helping organize supply deliveries. Their hands-on involvement reflects a company culture rooted in service and community impact.
“Tag a Teacher” is part of Orange Bowl Cares’ broader commitment to strengthening South Florida through education, youth development, and volunteerism. With partners like One Park Financial, the program continues to grow its footprint across the region.
The partnership underscores One Park Financial’s purpose-driven approach to business: investing in the dreams of its merchants, its Grovies, and the communities it calls home.
