The greatest investment a society can make is in the well-being of its children. Unfortunately, families living in low-income communities face many obstacles to accessing the best opportunities for their kids. Due to systemic and structural inequalities our neighbors are often locked out because of their race, class, gender or zip code.

Invest in the Possible

We believe that all children share a future full of endless possibilities. Driven by data and innovation, our experts support the continuum of care that includes parents, child care providers, community partners and policymakers. By giving parents a voice and meeting their unique needs, they are empowered to work or further their education, knowing their children are safe and cared for. We create opportunities to explore the joys of parenthood and lean on a supportive community during difficult times.

Our commitment to equity is defined by addressing the barriers that children, parents, and childcare providers face resulting from systemic and structural inequality. Equity is inherent in our approach of meeting families where they are and how we partner with those who care for the success of all children. Equity is both a noun for a better future and a verb of ongoing action. Through our multi-pronged approach, and in partnership with passionate members of our community, we can collectively build the pathway for all children to reach a bright future.
Investing in Child Care Starts with You
Every act of generosity has the power to uplift a community. We need impassioned supporters who share in our vision and will fight to see it become reality through advocacy, volunteerism, and financial contributions. Check out our annual report to learn more about how we are fortifying pathways to equity.
