👋 Happy Holidays!
The Maasai community of Kenya and Tanzania greet each another by asking, “And how are the children?” It’s a reminder that the well-being of children reflects the well-being of the whole community — and that every decision we make should be measured by its impact on the youngest among us.
That question is at the core of the Burke Foundation’s work: How are New Jersey’s children? And what more can we do for them to be healthy, supported, and able to thrive? Families want the very best for their children, yet too often face financial strain and systemic barriers that limit the availability of care and resources they deserve.
