First 5 Shasta

First 5 Shasta First 5 Shasta is building a pathway to success for children. We invest in early childhood from 0-5.

Investing in early childhood through available grants for programs, services, and activities and offering parent and provider education. To date, our investment in Shasta County's young children ages 0-to-5 has grown to over $20 million...and they are worth it! Investing early prompts optimal child development, healthy brain development, building of strong basic skills, physical, cognitive, social

and emotional. And all this gets children on the pathway to success in kindergarten, in school, and in life. Our investment is excellent for children and benefits the whole community for generations to come.

Like many of you, today we are mourning the loss of a beloved philanthropist, and singer, songwriter, Dolly Parton.

Through her generosity and unwavering belief in the power of literacy, Dolly gave millions of children the gift of reading and the opportunity to dream. She leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, kindness, and imagination that will never be forgotten. 📚💙

In Shasta County 58.45% of third graders are below reading level. Early literacy is so important because children who developed strong early literacy skills are more likely to succeed in school and beyond!

Help support early literacy in Shasta County. It’s never too early to talk, read, and sing with your child.
