We are so excited The Omni Grove Park Inn has decided to make us one of their parking partners for this year's Gingerbread Competition! Funds from events like this will help us invest more in the future of affordable child care through initiatives like Asheville Buncombe Preschool Planning Collaborative, which is trying to make high-quality, affordable preschool accessible to any 3- or 4-year-old whose family wants it. These funds allow us to reach more people in our community!

Collaborations like this are how change happens in our community. As Natasha Adwaters, from Children First CIS of Buncombe County said: "This tax revenue is an unprecedented opportunity to invest in working families and the future of Buncombe County. Family Friendly Affordable Buncombe’s plan moves us closer to a county where all families can access high-quality preschool for their children, live in homes and apartments that are attainable for working parents, and rely on a public transit system that runs on time, all day, and more often.”
We are proud to be a part of this effort, and know it can make lasting change possible in Buncombe. To learn more, go to familyfriendlybuncombe.org/This morning's press conference for Family-Friendly Affordable Buncombe. Learn more about the plan for expanding high-quality, affordable preschool to all children, increasing the number of apartments and homes affordable for working families, and connecting families to jobs, schools and amenities with frequent and reliable transit here: familyfriendlybuncombe.org
