A proven leader, Trey Sned is the vice president of William H. Sned & Company, the principal and broker of Sned Realty & Development, and the CEO and creative director of Harmen & Co., all in West Palm Beach, Florida. Dedicated to his Florida community, Trey Sned has been supporting Palm Beach Day Academy (PBDA) for several years and has helped the school raise thousands of dollars.

Committed to teaching children in a challenging yet compassionate environment, PBDA maintains numerous academic programs, including its China Partnership. Created in 2010, the China Partnership helps students at the academy understand that they are citizens of the world.

The program accomplishes this by partnering with China’s Alliance Primary School and Living Hope International orphanage, fostering person-to-person contact between students in Florida and China. Together, the organizations give students from both areas a chance to make friends in other parts of the world and experience different cultures.

Since the partnership's inception, PBDA has sent more than 70 students and teachers to Xian, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai. When PBDA is not sending students abroad, it is welcoming students from its Hong Kong and Beijing partnership organizations. In many cases, students have formed lasting friendships and stay in touch after they leave.
