Investing in a child’s first three years lasts a lifetime.
What direct giving affords families.
We provide $400 a month to new moms in need without condition because we know it has a compounding effect on their children’s lives. Studies show that the chronic stress of financial hardship and going without in a child’s first three years can put them at a disadvantage that follows them, showing up as:
Slower brain development
Poorer health, and delays in reaching key milestones
A higher risk of abuse or neglect
Less healthy outcomes over the long run
