On Wednesday, March 2 Orlando Magic leadership, representatives from Kia Motors and Turner Construction as well as Mayor Dyer and Commissioner Sheehan, will be unveiling a new, state-of-the-art, Orlando Magic Reading and Learning Center Presented by Kia Motors to the residents of the Colonialtown Neighborhood at 1517 Lake Highland Drive in Orlando. In addition to the reading and learning center, the Magic will also unveil a new game room equipped with a pool and ping pong tables, new games and books. Kia Motors is a proud sponsor of the Orlando Magic.
The center is part of the Magic’s commitment to assisting local community centers and schools with computer labs and reading and learning programs as well as Kia Motors’ commitment to bettering educational opportunities in Central Florida. Members of Turner Construction supported the initiative throughout the construction and design process.
The Magic previously renovated the Nap Ford Community School computer lab; Northwest Community Center Reading and Learning Center; Jackson Community Center computer lab presented by Hunt; Hi-Tech Tutoring Reading and Learning Center, Pine Hills Reading and Learning Center, Dr. James R. Smith Neighborhood Center and the New Image Youth Center in Parramore all presented by Kia Motors.
The renovation reflects the Magic’s commitment to the advancement of literacy in Orlando, one of the organization’s three charitable focus areas, along with health/wellness and the arts.
