Pitch for Pennsylvania's Children (posted
3/9/07)
Thanks to the work of the Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and
Philadelphia counties’ community engagement groups, the Philadelphia
Phillies will be having a business persons’ special in honor of quality
early learning and Pennsylvania’s Promise for Children on April 26,
2007.
Child care staff, families with young children and the business
community supporting early childhood education efforts will be able to
purchase discounted tickets to this game and additional games throughout
the season. The Phillies will broadcast a Public Service Announcement by
Deputy Secretary of the Office of Child Development and Early Learning
Harriet Dichter and children at the Margaret George School reminding
everyone of the value of quality early learning to our young children.
The Governor has also been invited to throw out the first pitch!
This is a remarkable opportunity to reach thousands to educate and
reinforce that quality early learning matters. If people are interested
in attending or receiving order forms to purchase discount tickets
contact Erin Connolly at
econnolly@melc.org.
