We recently heard from Smart Start of New Hanover County about the First 2000 Days Summit, addressing foundational skills children learn in their first 5 years. Smart Start is now holding the Pledge Breakfast for Children's Champions, its annual fundraiser-Tuesday, March 28 at 7:30am, Hilton Riverside. Executive Director Jane Morrow and Board Member Randy Reeves joined us; listen above. The keynote speaker for the Breakfast this year is Pierre Naudé, CEO of Wilmington banking software company, NCino. The topic of discussion will be the importance of early childhood development in the current and future workforce, with particular focus on STEAM, which is like STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math), but with the addition of Arts.
For more information or to RSVP, email Mebane Boyd. Tickets are not required to attend.
