Child Care Grants from Project Growth Wisconsin
Project Growth Wisconsin is offering two major grant programs in support of childcare needs, businesses, community organizations, local government agencies, and school districts.
First, there is the Partner Up! Grant program that primarily focuses on funding for supporting partnerships between businesses and those who purchase slots at existing regulating childcare providers. This funding will go towards deserving community childcare needs throughout the state of Wisconsin. The application is suggested for businesses as well as childcare providers.
Secondly, there is the Dream up! Grant program that primarily focuses on funding for child care supply building across the state of Wisconsin. The goal is to expand childcare in areas where it is needed and to sustain existing childcare. This application is open to businesses, child care providers, community organizations, local government agencies, and school districts.
Both of these grants are amazing opportunities to maximize the childcare potential in Wisconsin, and it is fairly easy for businesses to apply. The applications for both the Partner Up! Grant Program and the Dream UP! Grant Program are open until April 4th, 2022 until 5:00 pm.
Additionally, there are also online informational webinars offered for both of the programs to check out for more information on the specifics of the grants. Check out the link for dates to those webinars, and more information about the Project Growth Wisconsin grants!
