Pre4Cle Birthday Bash @ Studios at 78th Street
Sep 25 @ 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm

On September 25th, PRE4CLE will celebrate five years of success with a Birthday Bash to reflect on the accomplishments of the PRE4CLE plan to-date, honor the many partners and supporters who have made those accomplishments possible, and share our vision for the next phase of PRE4CLE’s work.

Event Details

Studios at 78th Street

1300 West 78th Street, Cleveland

Drinks and hors d’oeuvres served beginning at 5:00 p.m.

Program begins at 6:30 p.m.

Parking available on site.

Honorees

PRE4CLE will also honor four early learning champions that were a critical part of our success during the past five years. The honorees will include:

PRE4CLE Co-Chairs Eric Gordon, Chief Executive Officer, Cleveland Metropolitan School District and Marcia Egbert, Senior Program Officer for Human Services, The George Gund Foundation

Kristen Baird Adams, Chief Communications Officer, PNC Bank

Billie Osborne-Fears, Executive Director, Starting Point

Supporting Vibrant Preschool Classrooms

Funds raised from the Birthday Bash will be used to equip high-quality PRE4CLE classrooms with new toys, books, equipment, and other early learning supplies to ensure that teachers have the tools they need to fully implement a high-quality preschool curriculum. While all PRE4CLE classrooms have the markers of high-quality — such as credentialed teachers, a research-based curriculum, and daily outreach to families — many programs struggle to afford updated classroom supplies. Funds from the Birthday Bash will allow PRE4CLE to offer this much-needed support to classrooms throughout the city.

$150 | Includes food and drink for one attendee and supports admission for one preschool provider
