Last Day to Give! Help #ChildrenThriveIn2025!

Community Centric Fundraising Philanthropy

2024 Was Amazing, Now Let’s Make 2025 Even Better!

Dear First name,

Over the past few weeks, we’ve shared some of our proudest accomplishments from 2024. But we’re not done yet—in fact, we’re just getting started!

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re excited to continue building child-centered, antiracist early learning communities and creating even more opportunities for children and families to thrive.

TODAY is your last chance to give in 2024!

Your donation today will help us:

  • Provide resources and support to early learning providers and families;
  • Strengthen programs and policies that advance access to affordable high-quality child care;
  • Empower communities and ensure more #ChildrenThriveIn2025.

Every dollar you give goes directly to serving our community and fueling this vital work.

To our incredible community of supporters who have already donated time, resources, and funds this year—THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your unwavering support and belief in our mission!

Let’s finish strong—make your gift today and help us make an even bigger impact in 2025!

With gratitude,
The BrightSpark Team
