Thank You for Joining Us

Thank you for helping us make the 2011 Leadership Luncheon a success! Over 400 guests joined us at the Seattle Westin on March 18th and helped us raise over $165,000 to support Foundation for Early Learning's programs and grants.

Rob Glaser, founder of Glaser Progress Foundation, provided guests with an inspirational keynote that included a video interview of his parents. Rob also shared early learning tips he discovered as a parent of three.

In addition to Rob Glaser, we were also fortunate to have Holli Martinez speak at our luncheon. Holli is a member of the Foundation's Board of Ambassadors and served as the solicitor at this event.

A special thanks goes to our sponsors including The Boeing Company, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Casey Family Programs, Committee for Children, Costco, Laird Norton Tyee, Microsoft, Muckleshoot Indian Tribe and Seattle Children's. For a complete list of our sponsors, please visit www.earlylearning.org/about-us/sponsors.

One new addition to our luncheon this year was an early learning expo hosted just outside of the ballroom. Expo sponsors included Child Care Resources, City University of Seattle, Early Learning Public Library Partnership, Kaplan Early Learning Company, Lesley University, Nurturing Pathways and ParentMap.
