$25 — Books and early learning materials that spark play, language, and discovery.

$100 — Family Partner: Provide essential resources that help families thrive — from groceries and travel cards to jackets, shoes, and other necessities.

$250 — Enrichment Builder: Music, movement, and enrichment activities that deepen learning (these extras are often outside federal funding).

$1,000 — Teacher Sponsor (workforce impact): Sponsor a teacher’s professional development through EarlySpark Institute — a direct investment in local early-childhood workforce capacity.

$2,500 — Mental Health Support Champion: Provide essential mental health services at a center-based site by funding consultants and behavioral therapists who support children, teachers, and families in building resilience, emotional well-being, and positive learning environments.

Sponsor a Teacher for Training — One-time gift or recurring support options available. Sponsorships are tax-deductible and accelerate workforce development by helping new teachers earn credentials and gain hands-on experience.

Give with confidence: Every gift is tax-deductible and goes where it’s needed most. If an item is already covered by federal funding, we use donated funds to expand access or serve more children.

Gifts of $250 or more receive a personalized classroom update (photo and short note from a teacher) plus a digital thank-you package. Recurring donors receive quarterly impact emails and special recognition on our donor page.
