"But I’m just as convinced that at the other end of the educational spectrum, major investments in your early child development programs are sorely needed too. When corporate Canada divides its philanthropy pie for education, why can’t a larger piece be devoted to early childhood development? It’s time to invest in bridging the gap."</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B37C4493-B48C-4426-B0A1-AF3931C179B4/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
