Our Pride Academy

One of the four contestants on last Tuesday's episode of the Food Network's cooking competition Chopped competed for Our Pride Academy (OPA) in Miami as his charity of choice. OPA, a non-profit organization, is a school for children aged three to adult with developmental disabilities. According to the school's Web site, OPA's goal is "to teach essential academic and daily living skills that will empower students to live independent and fulfilling lives." The teachers achieve this goal by using proven research-based techniques. OPA accepts donations, and the proceeds from the All Fore the Kids Second Annual Golf Tournament in Doral near Miami on Saturday, December 2, will go to OPA. For more information about the school, go to http://ourprideacademy.org/.
