Our Story

It started with two students.

Early Foundations grew from a simple pilot. We tutored two young students once a week for 90 days, and saw firsthand the difference that consistent, caring support can make. Encouraged by those results, we are formalizing and expanding the program so more children can get the strong start they deserve. We are finalizing our curriculum by the end of 2026, ready to welcome our first full cohort in 2027.
