Brighten Futures. Strengthen Families
At Child Care Aware® of Eastern Kansas, we see that future in the eyes of parents who are relieved to find safe, dependable care so they can work. We see it in the commitment of early educators who stretch limited resources to create classrooms where children feel safe, curious, and loved.
As we launch our year-end campaign on Giving Tuesday, your gift helps us begin the new year ready to support even more children, families, and educators.
Lakeshore Learning recently donated a collection of high-quality classroom materials for licensed programs across eastern Kansas. Lakeshore has already provided the materials, and your gift helps bring them to life. Your year-end donation does not purchase these items; they strengthen our mission and help us stand beside early childhood educators so they can make the most of resources like the Lakeshore Classroom Collection and many others.
A gift of:
$25 provides fabric for nine cuddle blankets for babies born in Shawnee County
$50 helps two families connect with care that fits their schedule and budget
$75 funds a coaching visit that improves the learning environment for 12 children
$100 supports a visit to new or expecting parents, connecting them to child development and support resources
$250 provides professional development for educators, elevating care quality for 60 children
$500 supports the creation of an online training course, providing stronger care for 120+ children
Thank you for considering a gift to our year-end campaign, which carries our mission into the new year. We're grateful for your partnership and for all the ways you help ensure the children in eastern Kansas have the strong start they deserve.
