The Virginia Early Childhood Foundation is proud to sponsor Smart Beginnings.  We believe that investments in our youngest citizens are some of our wisest.  For every $1 invested in high quality early education, studies have shown returns of up to $18 in benefits.

Early learning is lifelong learning.  Children who enter kindergarten ready to learn perform better than their peers and are more likely to become engaged citizens who contribute to our economy, strengthen our communities, nurture healthy families, and build our quality of life.  What we do for our children today will matter tomorrow.
