How Golfing For Kids Supports The Arc Westchester’s Children’s School for Early Development
The Children’s School for Early Development, provides educational, social and support services for children from birth to five years of age and their families. The funds raised from this event help the Children’s School maintain its standard of excellence, at no cost to families. The School runs at a significant deficit every year, due to a continual lack of equitable funding from New York State. As a result, we rely on additional funding through grants and special events such as Golfing for Kids which allows for The Children’s School to remain open, active and effective in providing young children with the learning opportunities and supports they need in order to achieve lifelong educational and developmental success. Just a few examples include…
• Technology and access to on-line learning materials and activities used to enhance instruction.
• Class trips to integrate community learning with classroom instruction.
• Furniture, therapeutic and art supplies, and toys for all classrooms.
• Staff development workshops and conferences presented by leaders in the field of early childhood special education.
View Highlights from our 2024 Annual Golfing For Kids Event!
The Arc Westchester Foundation hosted its annual golf outing on September 16, 2024 with more than 110 golfers teeing up and another 70 joining for dinner at Knollwood Country Club. This year’s event raised over $235,000 for the Children’s School for Early Development, one of the largest providers of community-based, specialized services for young children with developmental disabilities in Westchester County.
The beautiful weather made for a glorious day of golf. This year’s honoree was the Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) and Newsletter Committee of the Children’s School, recognized for their outstanding support and dedication to the students.
At the banquet, guests enjoyed a live and silent auction hosted by emcee and live auctioneer Bobby D. of Inspire Hearts Fundraising.
