Families First held its 5th Annual Spring Benefit Reception on April 7, 2010. Over two hundred guests gathered above the skylines of Boston at the Boston College Club for a night of celebration, inspiration, and reflection.
If you were able to join us at the event, we hope you were inspired by the many stories you heard from our partners in this work.
We were thrilled to have John Palfrey as this year’s keynote speaker. His energetic and entertaining talk about how children interact with new kinds of technology had everyone laughing and reflecting on how the “digital natives” in our lives are growing, learning, and helping us learn.
So far, the event has raised more than $141,000 to support parenting and professional programs! If you wish to contribute, please visit our donation page.
Your help could not come at a more critical moment. Thank you again for supporting Families First Parenting Programs as we continue on our mission of helping communities thrive by strengthening families first.
