FAQ’s
Can I get a grant to support my childcare center/family childcare home
or school? The Foundation does not fund individual childcare centers or family childcare
homes or schools. However, they may benefit indirectly because many of our grantees
do provide one-on-one assistance to these providers. For more information about
accreditation, program and technical support, contact the Partnership for Quality
Childcare (312) 554-1300. For information about childcare subsidies, contact Action
for Children at (312) 823-1100.
