Join Thrive By Five
Be Part of the Change
There are over 8,000 babies born every year in Pinellas County. Getting every one of them ready for kindergarten by the time they’re five years old is a job that takes every one of us living alongside them — from friends, families, teachers, and neighbors, to the folks who live and work with them and their caregivers.
Volunteer with Thrive By Five
Would you like to lend a hand? We need committed community members for a wide variety of opportunities to help us achieve our goal of getting every young child ready for kindergarten. Can you:
- Share your early childhood story?
- Inform your friends and neighbors about early childhood priorities?
- Help families and caregivers find and register for programs and services?
- Or JUST SHOW UP - click here to see upcoming meetings and events.
