HELC Tax Credit

High-Quality PreK is Important 

When children start school without important skills, it becomes harder and harder for them to achieve their potential without considerable intervention. Supporting the Hattiesburg Early Learning Collaborative is a direct investment in preparing Hattiesburg's youngest students! Your donation will fund resources that will significantly impact students' positive attitude toward school and love for learning. 

Donating is Easy!
