A couple of days ago an interesting New York Times op-ed article entitled
Occupy the Classroom, was featured online. The opinion of the author, Nicholas D. Kristof, that "the single step that would do the most to reduce inequality has nothing to do with finance at all. It’s an expansion of early childhood education," is very intriguing.
Check it out to read why he sums up the article by saying, "the question isn’t whether we can afford early childhood education, but whether we can afford not to provide it."
Speaking of investments in early childhood education - McNeilly is very grateful for the support of Humana Communities Benefit who awarded McNeilly Center a grant as a finalist in their 2011 grant competition. We were proud to be one of three finalists out of almost 70 applicants, and extend a big thank you to Humana for investing in our programs.
