From Cradles to Crayons Childcare

Goal: $25,000.00

Specific Need

Each week, over 40 children walk through the doors of From Cradles to Crayons. They are learning, laughing, building friendships, and developing the foundation that will shape their future. Behind every child is a family depending on safe, affordable, high-quality childcare.

Across our community, childcare programs continue to face ongoing challenges such as staffing shortages and rising costs. Even so, our commitment remains strong: to provide an exceptional early learning environment led by dedicated teachers who pour into each child daily.

This year, our Grow Green goal is $25,000 to strengthen this ministry for the long term and invest in the children, families, and staff who make it so meaningful.

Funds raised will directly:

• Support competitive compensation for our staff
• Provide scholarships and tuition assistance for families
• Enhance curriculum and classroom resources
• Build lasting sustainability so this ministry can continue to serve families for years to come

Our goal is not simply to maintain what we have, but to ensure it remains strong, sustainable, and ready to serve future generations. Your participation, especially on match day, multiplies impact and helps secure the future of childcare at From Cradles to Crayons.

Together, we are investing in children, families, and a ministry built to last.
