For more than 24 years Children’s Law Center has served as an anchor institution for the District’s children and families. In order to make sure Children’s Law Center is always there for DC’s children, several visionary donors stepped up and collectively invested over $1 million in the Children Can’t Wait Fund.
Looking ahead we know the Children Can’t Wait Fund will be integral to helping us navigate an increasingly volatile funding environment and allowing us to build a brighter future where all of DC’s children can thrive.
