Supporting Early Childhood Education with the Carpinteria’s Children’s Project - A Grants In Action Event
Women’s Fund Grants In Action cordially invites you to our Learn & Connect event at Carpinteria’s Children’s Project! Witness how your generosity has helped provide safe, enriching environments and vital services so that children thrive, parents are empowered, and the Carpinteria community grows stronger.
CCP is dedicated to ensuring that every child in Carpinteria enters kindergarten ready to succeed—no matter what obstacles they may face. CCP’s high-quality early childhood education for toddlers through kindergartners and Family Resource Center, which provides parenting classes and coaching and access to health, nutrition, and social supports, strengthen families and build a foundation for healthy child development.
Thanks to a Women's Fund grant, scholarships are provided to partially subsidize enrollment costs of children from low-income families in the Carpinteria Children’s Project’s dual-language immersion preschool program.
