The Building Blocks of a Good Life: EDUCATION
Helping children and youth achieve their potential.
To succeed in school and life, children need supportive, nurturing families, a quality education, and positive role models.
| Last year, more than 2,200 at-risk children in the greater Richmond and Petersburg region received better quality early care and education because of United Way-funded preschool programs and STAR, an early care quality improvement project of Smart Beginnings. |
United Way works to:
- Strengthen families to promote children’s health and school readiness.
- Improve the access to quality, affordable child care and early learning opportunities.
- Provide positive places and strong role models for youth.
