Quality early childhood education is the foundation of success for our children. Last year, Early Childhood Alliance improved early child care and education for more than 8,000 children in Northeast Indiana.

As a non-profit organization, Early Childhood Alliance depends on the generosity of the community for funding. In addition, we are supported by United Way, fees for services, and government funding for specific programs. Many of our services are provided for free. Tuition in our child care centers is based upon the family's income using a sliding fee scale.

All gifts assist Early Childhood Alliance in acheiving its mission of building better futures for young children. To discuss giving opportunities, call the development director at 458-0125 or click here.
