Home-Based Child Care Emergency Fund for Severe Weather & National Disaster Response
Description
Home-based child care providers are the backbone of their community in good times and bad. During a crisis, they are often an afterthought or excluded entirely in emergency response and aid. We know that philanthropy can act quickly to address that gap and work to encourage public response to focus on home-based providers. The Home-Based Child Care Emergency Fund for Severe Weather & National Disaster Response seeks to address immediate needs among home-based child care providers impacted by national disasters and severe weather events. With input from existing grantees and partners on the ground, we designed an emergency fund to respond to providers’ needs as they recover from the effects of severe weather events and natural disasters.
Requirements
- Get immediate cash assistance to home-based child care providers and caregivers impacted by national disasters and severe weather events.
