Thank you for asking the Number 1 Question: Is it good for the kids? | Privacy Policy | © Copyright 2001—2003 GDMCF | Link to Us
“Number 1 Question: Is it good for the kids?” Is a leading child advocacy movement in Des Moines, Iowa. We strive to provide quality information to our parents, caregivers and community about the critical issues affecting the wellbeing of our children. We encourage volunteerism on behalf of agencies dedicated to improving the life of every child. We enable philanthropy by encouraging donations to organizations committed to helping kids and their families. We strive to see all babies born healthy. It is our goal too to keep kids healthy and well. We think every child should be living in a safe and stable home. We support those who strive to make our neighborhoods safe and supportive for kids. We question whether kids are receiving the mentoring they need to be ready for school and successful at learning. It’s our objective to see that all of our youth are preparing to enter adulthood so that they may live a happy and worthwhile life. Plus, successful kids mean a successful community for all of us in Greater Des Moines.    Website by Jordan Creek Web Design.
