Each Child. Every Community. Ready for School and Life.

Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday. We are raising $1000 for Boostlingo, a translating service for families who don't speak English, like Liliana, featured in the video below. You don't need to wait until Nov. 29. Visit here to give: wakesmartstart.org/donate youtube.com/clip/UgkxxMM31…


TODAY, 11am-2pm, at Pullen Park near Shelter 5, there is a Child Passenger Safety Clinic. They will inspect car seats free of charge and give away 50 FREE car seats on a first come, first serve basis.

Right now, about half of our adults are partially vaccinated and almost 40 percent are fully vaccinated. This is great progress. But to get to two-thirds, we need everybody to work on this. Tell your loved ones why it’s safe and easy. Give them a ride if they need it.
