Did you know that three out of four low-income kids in Washington are behind their peers when they start kindergarten? Refugee and immigrant families face more barriers than others in preparing their children for school. United Way believes these kids have as much potential as any child. They just need a bit of support to get ahead.

Join your fellow Emerging Leaders for a fun holiday volunteering project to support our early learning programs. We will be creating literacy kits by wrapping books and decorating number sets to be distributed to kids in need in our neighborhoods.

Sign up to volunteer here.
