Gloria learns what venture philanthropists are doing to fix early childhood education in this country with David Merage and Sue Renner from the David and Laura Merage Foundation. They discuss the wins they’ve had in their home state of Colorado, what they’ve been able to expand across the United States, and how they’re working to bring business leaders into the fold to be a voice for the voiceless. Plus, David outlines his goal of being able to change the name of the show to Everyone Is Coming to Save Us.
