From Our CEO, Kelly O’Lague

“Anyone who does anything to help a child in his life is a hero to me. ”

― Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers)

On March 3rd, you can be a hero! As an Alameda County voter, you can ensure that all of our children have access to high quality, affordable health care and early education by voting yes on Measure C.

As we’ve knocked on doors and talked with voters, we’ve been really heartened by the positive response to Measure C. Not surprisingly, the voters in Alameda County care about kids. They care about the future. They are willing to pay a little more to ensure that every child gets access to a world class trauma center if they need it. They are willing to invest in the early education that will prepare our youngest citizens for success in kindergarten and beyond.

Every day we see the positive things that happen when a community invests in its children and that’s why Hively is one of four community organizations who have worked tirelessly to get Measure C on the ballot. We hope you will join us in supporting the Care for our Kids initiative by voting yes on Measure C! You can get more information at care4ourkids.org .

As always, we invite you to be part of our Hively community! We work every day to improve the lives of the children and families in our community. There is so much to do. Will you help us? For more information on how you can get involved, email us at hello@behively.org.
