A Community-Driven Initiative

Union, New Jersey, is home to many community-focused endeavors, but one newcomer is already making waves—ABC, short for A Big Kids Club. This nonprofit, spearheaded by local resident Lindsi Davis and other members of the community, has embarked on a mission to create enriching, little to no-cost activities for toddlers while fostering community connections.

What ABC Offers

Founded just a month ago, ABC was born out of a desire to provide alternative learning and socialization experiences for toddlers. Lindsi Davis, who co-founded the organization, shared that her inspiration came from personal need: “We didn’t want to go the nursery school route but still wanted our toddler to have social interaction. So, we thought, why not create something that works for us and our community!”

Overcoming Initial Challenges

Starting any new venture comes with its set of hurdles, and for ABC, funding has been the primary challenge. “We’re actively reaching out to sponsors and donors to ensure we can keep providing these activities at no cost,” said Davis. Despite these challenges, the community response has been heartening, with local officials and parents showing enthusiastic support. Collaborations with local businesses have helped cement ABC’s role as a vital community resource.

Impact Beyond Playtime

Beyond regular meetups, ABC gives back to the broader community. They have plans for charity events in collaboration with children’s hospitals and nursing homes. “We have a toy drive and an ‘Art for Others’ event where we’ll make crafts and gifts to brighten up the holiday season for patients,” Lindsi added. Such initiatives underline the club’s commitment to instilling values of kindness and empathy in young participants.

Building a Future

With no formal entry fees, ABC’s mission to make toddler activities accessible has resonated well. Their dedication to inclusion and diversity has drawn a varied group of participants, enriching the experience for everyone involved. Davis, who is also an artist creating children’s art, continues to pour her passion into making the club a fun, engaging environment.

While they have only been around for a short time, ABC’s impact in Union County and surrounding areas is off to a good start. Their vision is clear: to offer children a safe, inclusive space where they can learn, play, and grow without financial barriers.

ABC’s Mission

“Our Mission is to create a vibrant and engaging environment for toddlers to learn, play, and grow, while showing them the importance of diversity and inclusion.”

Conclusion

In just a few weeks, ABC has proven to be more than a typical toddler club. It’s a growing movement, fueled by community spirit and a shared goal of nurturing the youngest members of society. Davis’ journey and ABC’s early success remind us of the power of community-driven initiatives and the importance of creating spaces that celebrate every child’s potential.

So if anyone is interested and is in the area, ABC travels to different parks and will try to make their way to everybody’s neighbourhood at some point in time!
