Meet a few of our donors
“I first became acquainted with Early Connections during a tour with the Woman’s Club. I was so impressed with the history, and of course, the historic building. After hearing it’s mission to provide high quality, comprehensive early care and education for ALL children, I knew I needed to be involved with this organization. Once I was involved, that meant Mike would also be fully committed… we witnessed first-hand the dedicated leadership team and staff, and I interacted with the children through reading, doing crafts, and just seeing their smiling faces in the classrooms. Please join us in supporting the Early Connections Learning Centers.”
“Our first tour of Early Connections impressed us…Witnessing the energy and engagement of the teachers and the smiling faces of the kiddos in their classroom, we knew Early Connections was an organization that has stood the rest of time and generates so many positive results for families and children in need. Never turning a child away and providing them a safe, loving place to learn and play is an amazing mission. They have earned and deserve our support.”
