Our Partners
Funded Partners
CelebrateOne invests directly in the neighborhoods where support matters most.
Since 2017, we have helped bring more than $17 million into Columbus communities - funding the programs, organizations, and trusted messengers who stand beside families every day. This investment is intentional. It reflects our belief that the solutions to infant mortality already live within our neighborhoods, and that community-rooted organizations are essential to a baby's healthy first year.
Our funded partners deliver the care, connection, and culturally grounded support that families rely on - from prenatal services and postpartum guidance to breastfeeding support, emergency resources, and safe, welcoming spaces for new parents.
By investing in their leadership, we strengthen the village that surrounds each family and build a collective, community-driven pathway toward every baby's first birthday.
