For The Children Inc.

For The Children Inc. For over 24 years, For The Children Inc. has offered high-quality, affordable preschool and after-school programming for children ages 3-19.

Our culturally sensitive programs and services appeal to the creative, academic, emotional and social minds of our children. They are designed to validate and empower students to succeed. Services like English-language skill development for preschool children are critical for entry into kindergarten. Academic tutoring, computer skills training, sports/physical activity, dance lessons, and gardening allow us to address a child’s development needs in a comprehensive way, while mentoring opportunities with older adults, business leaders and peers provide opportunities for character development and leadership training. We promote parental involvement and offer parenting classes in multiple languages to ensure children have a solid network of support. The multicultural, multilingual staff at For The Children “speak the language,” which allows us to develop and maintain strong relationships with our families. Our teachers are certified and highly trained. We are passionate about our community and the work we do.

For two decades, accreditation has reflected our commitment to strong governance, financial accountability, ethical leadership, and measurable community impact. More importantly, it represents 20 years of showing up for children, youth, and families throughout Palm Beach County.

Through educational enrichment, youth development programs, mentoring, family engagement initiatives, summer camp experiences, community partnerships, and resource connections, For The Children Inc., continues to create opportunities that help young people learn, grow, and thrive.

This milestone would not be possible without the support of our dedicated staff, volunteers, board members, community partners, funders, and champions, including the Children's Services Council of Palm Beach County and the many organizations that have walked alongside us throughout our journey.

Cheers to 20 years of impact—and the generations still to come!

🇭🇹 What a night to remember! 🇭🇹

On behalf of For The Children Inc., we want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who made our Haitian Heritage Celebration on May 19th an absolutely beautiful evening!

From the opening notes of the National Anthem performed in both English and Haitian Creole to the closing sounds of Kompa, every moment reminded us of the richness of our culture, heritage, and pride. 💛🖤❤️

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible performers and participants:
Digital Vibez, Inc.,🎭 Club 509/Art Venture | 🥁 Highland Elementary | 🎵 Eleven Manasse | 🎬 LWCHS Theater Department | Barton Elementary | Lake Worth Middle | John I. Leonard | Boynton Beach Multicultural Club | FTC-Osborne School | and so many more!

We also thank Mrs. Villani, Principal of Lake Worth Community High School, for her partnership, and every child, family, staff member, volunteer, board member, funder, partner, and sponsor who helped make this evening possible.

As we said tonight — “This is what community looks like.” Because of YOU, we celebrate, we grow, and we thrive together. 🙏🏾

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month this May, I encourage each of you to share these valuable resources with students, residents, and those within our school communities. Together, we have the power to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health.

We all need support to maintain and sustain a healthy mental environment. I invite you to be intentional — show kindness, speak words of encouragement and enlightenment, and spread peace, joy, and love to everyone you encounter.

This month, I challenge each of you to prioritize your own mental well-being and commit to sharing positive, uplifting thoughts with those around you. Small, meaningful actions can make a profound difference in someone's life.

Aspirations, compassion, and intention to you all,

Reggie
