Local children from infant to age five need your help! Citizens throughout Murray County will be “arrested” on August 14 to support learning opportunities for the youngest members of our community in the annual Jail & Bail fundraiser.
Money donated to bail out the inmates is used by the Murray County Early Childhood Initiative for area programs benefiting children from birth to age five. This includes FRED (Families Reading Every Day) events that provide educational activities and books for each child, Preschool Open Gym and Open Swim during the winter, children’s music concerts, the annual Family Fair, visits to area daycares by ECFE on Wheels, “Getting Ready for School” backpacks and supplies at preschool screenings, children’s books for waiting rooms in area businesses, and other outreach projects to encourage learning and school readiness in Murray County.
