Every dollar directly benefits school programs, including full-time preschool for kids aged 18 months to five years, daily meals, on-site social worker resources, parent mentoring, field trips, and holiday parties.

Mateo & Rocio
I am so grateful for Precious Lamb Preschool. The teachers and staff are so helpful and communicative. They are always telling me how interactive my kids are and how much they are growing and thriving. My kids love it. It’s also helping me as a parent to be more engaged in their school activities, and seeing how much fun they have in doing so. With only being with them for a year and being accepted into their scholarship program, that was a complete blessing. There are no words to describe how much they have helped me and how blessed I am to have each and every one of them in my life. Thank you!

Why I Give
As a retired teacher I’ve always enjoyed working and interacting with children, of any age. Today, I have the time and have always felt it important to give back to my community. Precious Lamb Preschool provides the opportunity for me to stay involved with children and give back to the unique population the preschool services. What I’ve been so impressed with at Precious Lamb is the love, support, unwavering commitment and dedication all the staff has for the children. They are true role models for the parents and children they serve. I feel so blessed to be a small part of these children’s lives. It takes a village to make a change and I’m committed financially and with my time to help with that change.
