Dear John,


It's been a challenging year for early childhood programs nationwide.


Yet through it all, Start Early has continued to champion a powerful truth: when we invest in the first five years of a child’s life, we can change the trajectory of their futures and our communities.


Every moment matters for our nation's littlest learners as their developing brains form over one million neural connections every second, building the foundation for all future learning and success.


Thanks to supporters like you, we've made remarkable progress this year in ensuring all children—regardless of circumstances—receive the quality early experiences they deserve.
Our Impact by the NumbersDirect Services That Transform Lives

Start Early directly served 4,073 children through our Head Start and Home Visiting & Doula Network programs, providing critical support during their most formative years.
