Legacy Fund - Ohio Association for the Education of Young Children

Legacy Fund

It’s time to make a difference

for Ohio’s children!

Quality early care and education are some of the smartest investments the public can make. Nobel Prize winner James Heckman states, “Because skills are accumulated, starting early and over time, investing in young children is an investment in future productivity and public safety. Key workforce skills such as motivation, persistence, and self control are developed early."

Heckman and Masterov, The Productivity Argument for Investing in Young Children, Oct. 2004.

For every dollar invested in early care and education the return can be savings of as much as $17 in special educational, criminal justice and welfare costs. The social-emotional returns for are even greater.

Early childhood needs your support

now more than ever.

YOU can make a difference in our future.
