Second Chance Last Opportunity
Educating and Empowering
the Underserved Since 1995
Second Chance Last Opportunity, located in north Sarasota
in the heart of the area’s most underserved neighborhood,
provides an oasis of hope and opportunity to youth and
individuals knocked off track by life’s circumstances.
Over the past 20 years, SCLO has served over 15,000 low
income adults or youth and homeless clients with multiple
social and economic problems, helping them reach their
potential and build a future through life skills and job
preparation training, youth programs, counseling, referral
baby supplies. Licensed mental health counseling and social
workers are also available for those needing additional
support for themselves or family members. Life management
skills classes include training in effective communication,
parenting skills, anger management, goal setting, budgeting,
and health awareness.
Funds are always needed for general operating expenses
and supplies, and have a direct impact on what services
and individuals can help by sponsoring events, organizing
fundraises, or setting up drives for food, personal hygiene
products, and baby supplies. Volunteers are always welcome,
including client mentors and fundraisers.

Where Dreams are Built
Imagine a state of the art fabrication facility where a
teenage entrepreneur can create a prototype for the next
must-have product, a retired engineer or machinist can share
their vast knowledge with eager students, and teachers can
access supplemental tools to give their students unique handson
learning experiences right in the classroom.
Not only does this place exist, it’s right in your back yard:
The Suncoast Science Center/Faulhaber FabLab where your
dreams are always welcome.
With decades of world-class experience, the FabLab’s
Founders – the late Dr. Fritz Faulhaber and his wife Ping
Faulhaber – set out on a journey to provide not only a state of
the art fabrication center, but also to establish a free lending
library for teachers. This has provided the community with
a myriad of opportunities for hands-on exploration and
experiential learning in Science, Technology, Engineering
and Math. The Suncoast Science Center/Faulhaber FabLab is
an incredible and unique community resource inspiring and
supporting tomorrow’s innovators.
Your support is more than a donation. It’s an opportunity
for future innovators of any age to turn their dreams into
a reality.
