On Saturday, November 13 Learning Grove will host its annual Gala in the Grove at Paul Brown Stadium 6-11 p.m.
This event will allow supporters to receive an update on the organization and mingle with other guests while enjoying an evening in downtown Cincinnati.
After a year’s hiatus due to COVID-19, the nonprofit organization is returning to an in-person event.

We value the commitment and dedication Shannon has devoted to providing access to high-quality childcare for children and families throughout Ohio,” said Learning Grove CEO, Shannon Starkey-Taylor. “We are honored Shannon has agreed to accept this award and we look forward to celebrating with her on November 13th.”
Shannon Jones said, “It’s an honor to receive Learning Grove’s Charity in Action Award. Learning Grove is an incredible organization that is improving the lives of children and families.
