-Deborah H. Wagner, Founder
Tampa
Bay’s Child, Inc. is a grassroots, all-volunteer effort that
grew out of a concern for children and the desire to build bridges
among residents in our community. For decades, the founders of
Tampa Bay’s
Child have sponsored impoverished children overseas – and they
will continue to do so, as well as support the mammoth organizations
that facilitate international sponsorships. But they have long wanted
a similar opportunity to sponsor children in their own community.
Finding no structured programs already in place that offer local sponsorships,
the founders set out to create Tampa Bay’s Child, Inc. ![]() Board members include: Deborah H. Wagner, President and Chairman A long-time Tampa resident and lawyer by training, Ms. Wagner served for nearly a decade as an editorial writer for The St. Petersburg Times, where she wrote almost exclusively about the needs of disadvantaged children and families.
