R4K Creates Brighter Futures
Birth to age five is the most important year in a child's development.
United Way of the Mohawk Valley (United Way MV) and our partners such as Excellus BlueCross BlueShield know that early childhood education is vital to the overall health of our community’s youngest residents. United Way MV’s R4K (Ready for Kindergarten) initiative’s holistic approach supports families during a child’s first years with a focus on educational, social-emotional impacts, and physical well-being.
