  • 1.  preschool scholarship fund

    Posted 01-05-2019 09:21 AM
    I am the director of a half day preschool and am interested in establishing a scholarship fund for families who cannot afford our tuition. I would appreciate any advice on setting up a fund, determining need, etc.

    Hi, we are a non profit preschool and we have scholarships funds for families.  If you want I can put you in touch with my Donor Relations/Executive Assistant here who works with the scholarships here if you would like?

    Hi Stephanie.
    I too work for a non profit preschool.  I started a preschool in 2010 with the vision of providing high quality programming available to families regardless of finances.  Let me know your specific questions.  I am to share any information I have.

    Th purpose of the scholarships that we offer here at our school being that we have a lot of low income, single parent families that would not be able to afford high quality preschools without it.  It is income based and that will determine whether there is full or partial scholarships.
