Nashville Public Radio is hiring: Google Ads Specialist in New York

Volunteer for a startup ensuring every child is ready to thrive in kindergarten! Agnes Youth & Family Center provides high-quality, accessible early education and holistic family supports to prepare children in Buffalo for a successful transition to school. In Erie County, nearly 30% of children enter kindergarten without the foundational literacy, math, and social-emotional skills they need to succeed. This gap is fueled by a regional childcare shortage and systemic barriers; currently, 42% of local families live below the survival threshold, struggling to afford essentials like food and healthcare. Without stable, nurturing early learning environments, these children face long-term challenges in educational equity and personal development. Agnes Youth & Family Center closes this gap through a dual-impact model. We provide high-quality early education led by a committee of Master’s-level professionals who develop evidence-based curricula and mentor teaching staff in developmentally appropriate practices. Simultaneously, we remove the external barriers to learning by connecting families to essential services, including food and clothing support, as well as health screenings and referrals. By combining academic rigor with essential resources, we ensure that a child’s potential is determined by their ambition, not their circumstances.
