GCDC’s preschool program develops our ability to get along with others, share, problem solve and take responsibility for ourselves.
Your donations allow us to send children to camp at a reduced cost, provide transportation to educational field trips, provide preschoolers with in house enrichment programs and help parents attend literacy based programs that help their children succeed in school.
