If you care about the future of young, vulnerable children, please donate to El Primer Paso.  For fifty-four years, El Primer Paso’s children have received the strong foundation needed for success, not only in kindergarten, but in future schooling and professional careers.

Why you should give:

​

• El Primer Paso needs your support to continue its important work

• Tuition from all sources makes up only a little more than half the cost of providing a quality preschool program for our students

• We depend on grants and charitable donations to make up the rest
