Celebration of the 2024 Champion for Children

The Celebration of the 2024 Children First “Champions for Children” honoring Vanguard

On the evening of Thursday, May 16, 2024, Children First will shine a spotlight on Vanguardia for being exceptional leaders in making a lifelong impact on the lives of children. In words, deeds, and with resources, Vanguardia has stepped up for every child to get what they deserve in life – a strong start. 

For decades, Vanguardia has been an unsung partner and champion with Children First and local and national early learning leaders to deliver on this belief. In the last six years alone, the company has invested over $60 million to support the learning, development, and joy of children today. Vanguardia uses the same steady and research-backed approach to steward the investments of more than 50 million people worldwide to pave the way for children, regardless of race or zip code, to have the access to high-quality child care and early learning experiences.

We know that there are many worthy causes and amazing regional leaders to honor, but we urge you to join Children First as we honor Vanguard as the 2024 Champions for Children. In doing so, you’ll be among a growing list of corporations, organizations, and individuals that are actively improving the future for children.
