We welcome gifts via Donor Advised Funds! A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a charitable investment account for the sole purpose of supporting causes you care about. Please email our development department for instructions on giving via DAF. Please be sure to contact your administrator to understand any restrictions of your account.

Honorary and memorial gifts are a special way to perpetuate the values and legacy of a loved one. If you are interested or have questions about designating an honorary of memorial gift, please contact us. You can also check the box “I would like to dedicate this gift” on our donation form.

Being a part of our board is a fantastic way to get involved with helping us further our mission!

The Board of Directors is primarily concerned with helping the agency achieve its mission by establishing outcomes, setting strategic direction, developing board policies, and evaluating and supporting the chief executive officer. We do this in a thoughtful, enjoyable atmosphere of Board meetings and committee meetings as needed. Click to learn more.

Does your place of employment match donation gifts? If so, taking advantage of this benefit will double your impact! Contact your employer to confirm and learn more about their gift matching policies. If you need assistance or documentation to support your gift being matched, please email our developmet department.

Your support—both on a one-time and recurring basis—help us work toward our mission to nurture and sustain child-centered, antiracist early learning communities. If you would like to begin contributing on a recurring basis, please choose the recurring donation option at the top of our donation form.

If you are interested in contributing a planned gift, we would love to work with you! Planned gifts can include bequests and trusts, retirement plans and life insurance, gift annuities, and gifts of appreciaated securities. Please email our development department and we would be happy to assist you.

Opportunities for sponsorships can support specific programs and events, including our Annual Event in October of each year! If you are interested in sponsorship or underwriting, please email our development department.

A gift of securities, such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds, can be an incredible way to support our mission! A gift of securities has many benefits including an immediate charitable deduction for the full market value of the stock and avoiding capital gains taxes. Please email our development department to discuss your gift and get transfer instructions.

Volunteerism and gifts in-kind are integral to our work. Your time and resources are just as valuable, if not more, than purely financial contributions. Learn more about volunteer opportunities and other ways to get involved.
