Projects
Childcare License
High quality early childhood education is the foundation of lifelong learning. A daycare manager found our team in their time of need. Their application to become a licensed daycare had been denied and they did not know how to proceed. Our team stepped in and advocated for the program to be reconsidered and approved. After identifying the deficiencies in their application, we were able to assist the program in reapplying and finally, receiving their approval. This is one example of the many programs we have guided through the licensing process.
Playground Grants
A small community organization approached our team and requested support in gaining funds to build a much needed community playground. Intense research enabled us to identify funding sources and successfully obtain matching fund grants to fulfill the funding gap. Today, the playground is used by hundreds of children throughout the year. Since then, we have successfully supported many organizations in the grant process.
Universal Pre-K
Since 1998, New York state universal Pre-K program has provided free early childhood education, regardless of family income throughout NYS. An established program on Long Island faced resistance from the local school board in becoming a provider and contacted us for support. Our team successfully navigated the RFP process for the school and they were awarded their target UPK enrollment.

Food Box Distribution
At the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, when the world was in chaos, children were out fo school and unable to access their primary source of food and nutrition - school meals. Our team worked tirelessly to create systems and gain approval from the state to distribute food to families through bulk once a week distributions. Our efforts helped ensure that more than 70,000 children received nutritious food throughout the pandemic and beyond.
