How to Get Involved

The goal of PNC Grow Up Great is to reach the children throughout our footprint to ensure that children not only grow up, but that they grow up great. We believe that PNC Grow Up Great will set new standards of excellence for how companies contribute to society by helping children and communities achieve more, every day.

Experts have told us that children with quality early education experiences do better in life. As a concerned corporate citizen, PNC is actively seeking to increase learning opportunities for children. We want to see more resources, training, support and advocacy in support of universal access to high quality early care and education.

PNC will advocate for school readiness by developing partnerships with leading school readiness organizations and experts, promoting awareness of the issue and using our influence in the corporate community to draw attention to the importance of quality early childhood education.

To help you learn more about the issue of school readiness and to find ways you can become involved in your community, we have provided links to the organizations that are associated with many of the PNC Grow Up Great Advisory Council members. These organizations have been an invaluable resource to our program and provide a wealth of knowledge about quality early childhood care and education.
