Business Leaders Breakfast for Early Education

15^th Annual Business Leaders for Early Education Breakfast Hosted by Women United

Keynote Speakers:

Associate Economist with the Federal Open Market Committee.

Last year, 749 influential business and community leaders attended Women United’s annual Business Breakfast and helped to raise nearly $70,000 for early childhood literacy. Women United combines the financial power and collective talents of local philanthropic women leaders to address early childhood literacy in our community. Children who read proficiently by the end of third grade are more likely to succeed academically and graduate from high school prepared for college and careers. 1 in 4 children in Pima County are not reaching this crucial benchmark.
