Reflecting on his organization's 20-year relationship with NHSA, Golechha noted, "There is ample evidence that early access to educational opportunities is critical for the underserved children in our communities if they are to succeed in school and, more importantly, in life. As leaders in providing the best educational tools and solutions to teachers and parents, we, at Excelligence and Discount School Supply, are proud to partner once again with NHSA and the Dollar Per Child Campaign that has benefitted millions of American children."
Head Start/Early Head Start has improved the lives of more than 32 million children and their families since its inception, and exemplifies the national commitment to give every child, regardless of circumstances at birth, an opportunity to succeed in school and in life. Through the Dollar Per Child campaign, which aims to raise one dollar for each of the one million vulnerable children Head Start serves each year, NHSA ensures that the voices of at-risk children and their families are heard. Dollar Per Child funds are used to amplify a unified voice, advocacy, and representation of all Head Start Children in Congress and on Capitol Hill, along with outreach and education to the public about the program.
