One Last Call:
Let’s Cross the Finish Line Together!


Thanks to your generosity, we’ve raised $19,578 in individual donations—and with the added support of our event sponsors and ticket sales, we’re now just $522 away from hitting our $40,000 goal!

That’s $39,478 already raised to support children, families, and the everyday heroes who show up for them.

Will you answer the call one last time?

Your gift—no matter the size—might be the one that takes us all the way.

Guardians of the Next Generation!

It’s here. Guardians of the Next Generation is a short film honoring the everyday heroes who don’t save the day—but show up for it. From classrooms to clinics, diaper banks to council chambers, these real-life guardians rise—not for credit, but for community. They remind us that building a future of abundance—for children, and for families—takes collective strength and a commitment to showing up together.


Announcing Our Inaugural

At Inspire Breakfast 2025, we had the privilege of honoring four extraordinary partners whose early and enduring support helped shape the foundation of First 5 FUNdamentals. Like sequoias, their investments have taken root—growing a legacy of care that will stretch across generations.

Please join us in celebrating: (pictured left to right below):

These honorees exemplify what it means to believe in the long game—investing in children, families, and the systems that support them. We’re honored to stand with them and grateful for the impact they’ve made.
