Philanthropic Partners Help Ellis Thrive

Corporate support matters

The generosity of our corporate donors provides essential support that allows us to fulfill our mission. Ellis is unique among early childhood education programs for our combination of high-quality care and socio-economic and racial diversity. At Ellis, all children thrive together because we provide access to excellent early education without regard to a student’s financial circumstances. Investments like yours make this possible.

We welcome the opportunity to learn more about your company’s philanthropic and engagement goals. If you want to arrange a tour or do an information session on Zoom, please reach out to Gaia Roverato at groverato@ellisearlylearning.org.

Corporate volunteer opportunities

Ellis Early Learning offers group volunteer opportunities for organizations interested in supporting Ellis' mission.

Q: We are looking for a hands-on volunteer opportunity for our staff. Can Ellis accommodate us?

A: Because of the limited space in our Centers, we have some in-person volunteer opportunities in our classrooms for our Corporate Partners ($5,000 and above). We can welcome up to 12 volunteers in the South End and 6 volunteers in the Jamaica Plain at a time.

Q: We really want to do something to support your work, any ideas?

A: Many groups, large and small, host Ellis's CEO, Lauren Cook, at their company for an interesting presentation and Q&A about Ellis. Please reach out to VP of Advancement, Community and Equity, Patti Keenan at pkeenan@ellisearlylearning.org.

Other groups support Ellis through diapers, books, food, or toy drives.

Q: We would like to learn more about your work, what's the best next step?
