Raise a Glass for Kids!
The Child Care Council of Westchester cordially invites you to a fun night of wine, food, and friends!
Funds raised from this wonderful evening will benefit our child care scholarship program. We hear over and over again from parents that these scholarships are unequivocally life-altering. Children who are able to move into programs that offer high-quality early care and education start to improve and flourish almost immediately. Research proves that the brain growth this spurs will make a lifelong impact, increasing the likelihood to success throughout school and career, and reducing incidences of risky or unhealthy behavior.
