Dear Friends,

Although Children's Village is being tested as never before, we continue to experience joy from connecting with children and nurturing their growth and development.

This is possible only because of our dedicated teachers -- and because of YOU.

Your support comes in many forms and we would not be here today without it. You advocate to save child care for all children and families. You volunteer your expertise. You award grants as lifelines and as ways to build our capacity. You donate much-needed dollars to sustain our high-quality programming as this crisis deeply strains our budget. You offer powerful words of appreciation to our teachers and other incredible staff.

Above all, you share our belief that every child deserves to benefit from the lifelong rewards of high-quality early learning. To thank you, I’m highlighting children’s artwork in the hope of bringing you joy and encourage you to view our
Art Gallery. Also, please scroll below to see how a kindergartener expressed his passion for trains and love of the story of the Polar Express. (His mom made his train-themed face mask.) His artwork is sure to bring you cheer!

Again, we only made it through this year because of you and we are immensely grateful. We look forward to the new year ahead and extend our best wishes to you all.

Happy holidays to you and yours,

Mary E. Graham
Executive Director
