Maraist Family Foundation Supports Head Start
August 28, 2025
Family engagement at Prime Time Head Start and Early Head Start at Immaculate Heart of Mary in Lafayette, Louisiana, recently got a boost thanks to a $25,000 donation from the Maraist Family Foundation.
Like all things Prime Time, our Head Start and Early Head Start centers are family-focused, with programs designed to engage parents and guardians as partners to ensure that students build basic skills, develop a love of literacy, and hone critical-thinking abilities that will set the foundation for kindergarten readiness and lifelong learning. This generous donation will support three Prime Time Preschool Reading family literacy programs and monthly Family Engagement Network Meetings during the 2025-26 school year.
The Maraist Family Foundation supports organizations in coastal Louisiana that boost economic mobility, foster educational opportunity, and ensure that South Louisiana remains one of the most culturally-rich places on Earth.
