Project Title: Kids Cultural Connection
Project Description:

As the only NAEYC accredited Jewish educational program in South Palm Beach County, we are unique! Our developmentally-appropriate curriculum promotes a healthy self-image for children in a very warm and welcoming environment. Our teaching staff is dedicated to strengthening the lives of our students through the transmission of key values. Our staff represents a wide variety of diverse educational backgrounds, but they focus on empowering and building the confidence of our future young leaders to become engaged contributors of our community.
Why are we seeking this assistance? Our goal is to enrich our children’s lives by having them experience a new way of hearing and feeling music. The Kids Cultural Connection, in which we are seeking assistance for, will take have a fall and spring program. The fall program will consist of a traveling museum exhibit that will be culturally enriching to the community. The spring program will showcase the Symphonia of Boca Raton , in which the community will have the opportunity to hear the orchestra play. After there will be a “Petting Zoo” in which the children get a chance to touch the instruments. This is a remarkable way for the students to not only fall in love with the music that is so culturally new to them, but they will get a chance to touch and play an instrument they might have only seen in a book!
We at the Ruth and Edward Taubman Early Childhood Center want to help grow and nurture our children, instilling a love of culture through expanding their musical and historical palate. The time for learning excellence is now and we would like to help our children grow experientially, ultimately benefitting both the school and the overall South Palm Beach community.

We would welcome the opportunity to partner with Hermanowski Family Foundation to empower and support our children at The Ruth and Edward Taubman Early Childhood Center.

Thank you for considering this letter of inquiry.
