🌟 BUILDING THE ECOSYSTEM SPOTLIGHT

This week, we’re proud to recognize Anne Gunderson, Senior Policy Analyst at the DC Fiscal Policy Institute.

Creating better opportunities for children and families doesn’t happen by chance—it takes thoughtful research, strong advocacy, and leaders who are committed to improving the systems that shape our communities.

Anne’s work has helped advance policies and investments that strengthen early childhood education and expand opportunities for children, families, and educators across Washington, DC. Her leadership reminds us that lasting change happens when passionate people work behind the scenes to build stronger, more equitable systems.

Thank you, Anne, for your dedication and leadership. We’re grateful for all you do to help build a brighter future for our communities. CommunityImpact Leadership

Every great future begins because someone chose to invest in potential. 💙

Through our partnership with the DC Department of Employment Services (DOES), we’re helping prepare the next generation of early childhood educators through the Child Development Associate (CDA) Apprenticeship Program.

Behind every future educator is someone who believed in them, invested in them, and opened a door.

We’re grateful to our partners at DOES, to Dr. Unique Morris-Hughes, and to our incredible team—including Kamila Johnson and Michelle Marbury—for helping create pathways into meaningful careers that will positively impact children, families, and communities for years to come.

Because when we invest in the people who shape young lives, we invest in the future of our communities.
