25th Anniversary Celebration

On September 4, 2025, we had the incredible honor of celebrating the Early Learning Coalition of Flagler & Volusia’s 25th Anniversary at the beautiful Museum of Arts and Sciences. It was an evening filled with reflection, gratitude, and excitement for the future.

The evening highlighted where we’ve been, honoring original board members whose vision and leadership laid the foundation for our work to where we are today—a strong, community-driven organization focused on ensuring that every child enters school ready to learn and succeed. Through collaboration and innovation, we continue to expand access to quality early learning and empower families across Flagler and Volusia counties.

Finally, we shared our vision for the future—a future where every child has the tools, resources, and support needed to reach their fullest potential. Together with our partners, supporters, and educators, we remain steadfast in our mission to build a brighter tomorrow for generations to come.

From everyone at ELCFV, thank you to all who attended, supported, and helped create such a memorable evening. Here’s to the next 25 years of inspiring children, empowering families, and strengthening our community!

A heartfelt thank you to our Presenting Sponsor, AdventHealth, whose generous support helped make this milestone celebration possible.
