We are beyond grateful to Isabella Hohl and the rest of The Converse Team for partnering with us for our Annual Hat & Mitten Donation Drive! Thanks to their support, along with the generosity of everyone who has donated, local children in our Head Start Program will stay warm this winter. Your kindness is truly making a difference for the children who benefit from our early childhood development and education programs. Each donation helps set these children on a path to success—and your contributions are helping us make that possible. A huge thank you to everyone who has already donated. There’s still time to contribute and brighten the season for these children! ?? Together, we’re spreading warmth and joy. ?? #ThankYou #HolidayGiving #ChildStart #CommunitySupport #HatAndMittenDrive #MakingADifference

??We are incredibly grateful to all the families who shared their creativity and cultural pride by submitting ornament designs for our first-ever Child Start Holiday Ornament! Your designs were vibrant, heartfelt, and truly showcased the diversity that makes our Child Start community so special. A special thank you to Mayor Lily Wu and our dedicated Board of Directors for taking the time to review each design and helping to select our 2024 ornament. It’s a beautiful reminder of the shared spirit we cherish every day. At Child Start, we celebrate the unique cultures and traditions of each of our families. Thank you for sharing your stories and helping us create a keepsake that reflects the richness of our community. We can’t wait to see our chosen ornament displayed with pride this holiday season and stayed tuned to learn more about how you can have your very own 2024 ornament!
