"It's been amazing to see our parents and community come together to get the doors open of this beautiful new campus.  To see the children uplifted by the brightly colored classrooms filled with new furnishings, equipment and supplies is incredibly rewarding for me as an educator.  It's obvious there is a huge demand for quality early childhood education in Southern Nevada and this new facility will allow us to serve so many more families in need." Sayonara Harris, Program Director, Variety Early Learning Center.

Investing in early childhood education has long-term benefits for the economy and society in general.  Opening the doors of the new campus is just the beginning.  Ongoing support from the generous Las Vegas community will be essential to maintaining both the facility and the programming.  Those interested in investing early childhood education and in the future of our children can do so donating to Variety Early Learning Center.  With an annual operational budget of approximately $1 million the school is supported by grants, private donations and tuition, which is charged on a sliding scale.  Monetary and in-kind donations of supplies and services are all greatly appreciated.

Variety Early Learning Center will be holding a grand opening ribbon cutting celebration on August 9^th at 1pm

About Variety Early Learning Center:

By way of background, in 1955, the Variety Club of Southern Nevada Tent 39
recognized the need for a day home that would care for children of working mothers.Through their efforts and with support of local hotel owners and entertainers, their vision became reality.  The Divine Providence Variety Day Home opened doors in 1956 and was the first of its kind in Las Vegas. Tent 39 chose the Sisters of the Holy Family to operate the Day Home, which eventually became the independent, non-sectarian, not-for-profit known today as Variety Early Learning Center. Community need grew over the years and led to the Center expanding its services.   Today, the Variety Early Learning Center is consistently recognized for its academic excellence and its commitment to the community to provide affordable, high quality early education for the children and their families. www.varietyearlylearningcenter.com
