Donors to Smart Start
As a public-private partnership, Smart Start relies on support from state government and contributions from businesses, foundations, and individuals. Since 1995, Smart Start has leveraged more than $200 million in support of young children and families in North Carolina. Investors know that the best investment they can make in our state is a commitment to the lives of our youngest citizens.
As Smart Start moves forward in this new millennium, we thank those who have contributed to Smart Start and urge others to invest in the future of our children and our great state.
