Education begins in the home, thrives in the schools, and is nurtured by the community. In addition to the hundreds of volunteers and businesses who have contributed their time, energy, and resources to assist individual schools, the following organizations are just a few of those who have strengthened Wake County's capacity to help every child succeed.
