WELComEWe are a powerful association of men, women and

children joined together by a shared commitment

to nurture the potential of kids, promote healthy living and foster a sense of social responsibility.

We believe that lasting personal and social change

can only come about when we all work together to

invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors.

That’s why strengthening community is our cause.

Every day, we work side by side with our

neighbors in 10,000 communities to make sure

that everyone, regardless of age, income or

background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
