For over 130 years, the Rosa Valdez Early Childhood Learning Center has served as a safe space that provides high-quality care and an enriching learning environment for economically disadvantaged children and families. Your contributions will provide the annual scholarships needed to one or more of the children we serve each year. A full year's gap scholarship is $3000/year. Our goal is to raise 83 full scholarships as we continue nurturing bodies, developing minds, and fostering hope one child at a time.

What is Cornerstone’s Topgolf Tournament?

A quality full-day childcare program for an infant to preschool-aged child costs between $7,500 - $12,000/year. Going to school and/or work is key to finding a successful pathway out of poverty. For all working parents childcare is essential, especially for those trying to break the cycle of poverty. Statistically, children living in poverty start school 12-18 months behind their peers making early childhood education even more important. Unfortunately, many families desiring to work or making as little as mininum wage do not qualify or are on waiting lists for childcare vouchers. Thanks to this event, Cornerstone is able to provide sliding-scale scholarships to keep these parents earning and learning while giving their children the very best early childhood education - setting the whole family on a path to a brighter future!
