69,000 children in Alabama between the ages of three and four are not enrolled in school. We're on a mission to change that.
Decades of research have proven that quality early learning and care programs are a smart investment, often breaking the cycle of poverty for multiple generations. Childcare Resources' programs and services provide early education opportunities children need not only to survive but to thrive.
As we continue celebrating the holiday season, here are 5 quick ways you can support our mission and change the lives of young children and families in Central Alabama.
1. Use AmazonSmile
We’re shopping online more frequently than ever before! If you’re already making purchases through Amazon, you can give back to Childcare Resources at no cost to you by instead using to AmazonSmile. With AmazonSmile, you get the same selection and shopping experience, but Amazon donates to the nonprofit of your choice with every purchase. It’s an amazing way to give back!
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you shop on your phone, make sure you active AmazonSmile using these easy-to-follow instructions.
2. Volunteer
We are always overjoyed to hear from potential volunteers! Email our Director of Development to see how you can make an impact by volunteering. If you have a special talent you’re willing to share, such as a knack for contacting celebrities or spectacular graphic design skills, be sure to mention them in your email!
3. Follow Us on Social Media
It may be the simplest thing you do today to make a difference: follow us on social media. In the process, you’ll do your part to help our organization reach more people who may want to donate to, or benefit from, our mission. You can find and follow Childcare Resources on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
4. Make a Legacy Gift
Legacy or Planned Giving is simply a charitable gift that is part of your overall financial or estate plan. As a lasting investment in Childcare Resources, a planned gift advances our mission and ensures our ability to continue providing resources and support to families in Central Alabama, as we have done since first opening our doors in 1984.
