CAPITAL FUND APPLICANT GUIDES NEEDED!!
United
Way and Thrive in 5 are administering the Capital Resources for Early
Educators Fund for the City of Boston. This Fund will enable early
education providers (centers and home daycares) with funding to purchase
enhancements to the environment in which they care for the children in
their program. The Capital Fund will also connect fund recipients to
resources available to them through the City of Boston, including Thrive
in 5, the Boston Public Health Commission and ReadBoston.
Instead of just issuing an RFP and waiting for
applications to come in, UW and Ti5 want to set up providers for success
and we need volunteer help to make this happen!
Early
Education providers will be invited to attend training and technical
assistance sessions where volunteers will provide one-on-one guidance to
make sure that applicants start the forms correctly and apply for
appropriate expenditures. This is especially valuable for providers that
do not have access to computers, for which English is not their first
language, and those who have never applied for a grant before.
Come as a group or as an individual volunteer for
one of the following sessions. Training will be provided via a brief
webinar - watch it live or recorded. We need 5-15 volunteers per
session. Bilingual volunteers are especially needed, but not required.
If volunteers have access to a laptop, it would be great if they could
bring it with them. This will allow us to augment any computers
available at the sites.
Ready to sign up? Please check the session
below that you would like to attend, and complete the Volunteer
