Two Women Submit Their Daycare Business Proposal To Receive A Grant!

Do you have an idea that will have a positive impact in your community? Then you might just want to read the excerpt below:

Two area women were seeking votes to open a special needs daycare in their community. In addition to being able to provide childcare this business will also improve the community by employing people in the area.

The 2 women have submitted their plans for their daycare business to an organization which awards grants to people with ideas that will have a positive impact in their community.

The proposed daycare will be a daycare for developmentally delayed children, including staff equipped to handle children with autism and other special needs.

Since one of the women had a son who is autistic she wanted to start the daycare because her own son had been kicked out of five daycares because "the staff didn't know how to handle the disability", she said. She also has said that she was unable to work full-time because of the lack of childcare and the lack of help.

She said that her daycare will offer services that typical child care centers don’t so families with developmentally delayed children can go out to weddings or other events without worrying about what to do with the children.

In order to win the grant the daycare needs to have the most votes out of the dozens of other ideas which are vying for the $250,000 grant by the end of the month. The top two ideas will receive the grant funding.

In order to increase their visibility (and also to increase their number of votes), the women have gone to Facebook and posted fliers informing people to vote for their cause.

Among the list of items that the proposed daycare business plan to spend the grant money on are $40,000 for the building and renovations, $35,000 for tuition and daycare-related scholarships for scholarship assistance to the school and $30,000 for specialized therapist wages.
