By building trusted relationships and facilitating open dialogue between funders and key early childhood stakeholders across the state, the MA ECFC:

 

  • Advances knowledge, supporting funders in acquiring the knowledge they need to effectively support children in their catchment areas,

 

  • Facilitates alignment and coordination among funders to share early childhood priorities and investments, and key stakeholders in support of a unified early childhood strategy, and

 

  • Presents systems- and policy-change opportunities with high impact potential throughout Massachusetts.

Funder Members

Membership is open to all types of funders who have an interest in investing in Early Childhood in Massachusetts including private foundations, corporate foundations, community foundations, United Ways, and individuals. Membership is also open to philanthropic advisors.
