Corbett Cares
A large part of Corbett Prep's mission is to have a positive impact on the greater community.
In 2022, the Parent Faculty Association (PFA) launched Corbett Cares to focus on partnering with organizations in the Tampa Bay community.
Corbett Cares serves as a liaison to build connections for students in the classrooms and arrange volunteering opportunities for Corbett parents and children within the community. Corbett Cares even organizes adult-only opportunities for parents and guardians.
Let's have a positive impact on the greater community together. Fill our our survey if you would like to be part of this cause.

Feeding Tampa Bay
Corbett Cares' fall Feeding Tampa Bay food drive collected more than 5,000 pounds of food, resulting in 4,432 meals for families in need!
The food drive is the first phase of a yearlong effort to support Feeding Tampa Bay. Teachers are scheduling class field trips to volunteer at the nonprofit's warehouse, and Corbett Cares has family volunteer opportunities on two weekends.
Last year, through collections and volunteer visits, 402 Corbett Prep parents, children and staff contributed more than 1,000 hours of volunteer work for a total meal impact of 80,238 meals.
We look forward to continuing to make a positive difference this school year!
You can show your support for Corbett Prep and Feeding Tampa Bay by purchasing an Empathy Warrior T-shirt from our Shopify store! These shirts come in youth and adult sizes, and they comply with the Corbett Prep dress code if students want to wear them to class. A portion of the proceeds will go toward Feeding Tampa Bay at the equivalent of 25 meals per shirt!
