Thanks to the generosity of donors, we help the nation's most vulnerable children become ready for kindergarten _ and excel by third grade _ so they can succeed in school and in life. Plus our teams are there before, during and after emergencies _ preparing children, protecting them and helping them cope in the aftermath.
