Children ages 6 weeks to 6 years have been thriving and developing brain power for 27 years at the nonprofit C5 Children’s School while their parents go to work each day and contribute to our U.S. economy.

Your contributions provide scholarships to children who would otherwise not be able to attend our school, professional development training workshops such as Children and Nature, Music Together, Creative Movement and Dance, Resources for Infant Educarers, and Program for Infant Toddler Care, and to purchase electronic tablets.  

Our eighth annual Festival of Learning will run May 6-29. It includes a Grand Exhibit of Children’s Work, Public Demonstrations of Children’s Learning Activities, Educators’ Workshop, Gala Party and Raffle.

The raffle prizes will be drawn on the night of the Gala Party on the 23rd of May. Presence is not required to win.

Please visit this site or our school's website at www.c5children.org regularly for an updated raffle prize list.
