Sheltering Arms provides high‐quality early education, child care and comprehensive family support services to more than 3,500 children and their families annually at 13 metropolitan Atlanta locations in Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fulton and Gwinnett counties.

On average, children attending Sheltering Arms score in the 90th percentile for language and literacy, exceeding developmental milestones for kindergarten readiness.

Each year, Sheltering Arms hosts our annual signature fundraising event entitled Embrace Early and Create the Future. The event will consist of a silent auction portion that serves as the main driver of our fundraising efforts. Your donation to the Embrace Early silent auction contributes to Sheltering Arms continuing its mission to provide equity in education.
