Tandem Partners in Early Learning | $5,000 | Tandem, Partners in Early Learning holds a vision of an equitable and just society where all children enter school ready to succeed. To that end, our mission is to engage the whole community to ensure all families have the resources, skills, and confidence they need to support their children’s early brain development and kindergarten readiness. More than half of San Francisco Bay Area children arrive at kindergarten without the early literacy, critical thinking, and social-emotional skills they need to succeed, which puts them at risk for never reaching their full potential. A disproportionately large number of these children are from underserved and under-resourced families, including children from low-income families, children of color, English language learners, immigrants, children not enrolled in preschool or formal care, homeless, foster youth, and children with disabilities. Tandem aims to address these opportunity gaps through two complementary programs: StoryCycles, a school-to-home book-sharing program, and Early Learning Everywhere, an ecosystem of support for parents/caregivers and educators for promoting literacy and language development. | Civic Engagement, Communications | 2019 | Pacific |
