| Our mission | "Helping Each Child Achieve Their Best" - Ivy Child enhances the social and emotional well-being of children by recognizing their multicultural needs, using education and positive psychology as a uniting force to inspire resilience and leadership. We encourage and enable families to participate in the growth of their child and strive to be a leading resource for caregivers, educators, and community organizations to receive guidance and instruction on creating a healthy child-centered environment. |

| How you help | We are often asked, “What’s the best way to contribute?” Our answer is simple: We need passionate supporters to spread awareness and help raise money about the challenges people face in urban systems. And, we rely heavily on the support of our partners and volunteers to join us in service to breakdown systemic barriers impacting diverse communities. |

We encourage you to make practicing the social justice acts & activities a fundamental part of your daily life. While we provided one activity per day for July, these are just a fraction of what you can do to make your spaces more equitable and just.
