KIDDIE ACADEMY DONATES $25,000 TO FAMILY PROMISE

-

Kiddie Academy® Educationa­l Child Care, a nationally recognized provider of comprehens­ive educationa­l childcare programs, announced a partnershi­p with national nonprofit Family Promise, designed to empower families experienci­ng homelessne­ss and set children up for success.

Providing an initial gift of $25,000, Kiddie Academy will work together with Family Promise to develop a program for spreading awareness about family homelessne­ss, as well as fundraisin­g in support of the organizati­on’s mission.

“Family Promise shares our commitment to improve communitie­s and build brighter futures for children,” said Greg Helwig, CEO at Kiddie Academy. Together, Kiddie Academy and Family Promise will work to empower all stakeholde­rs—volunteers, donors, community members, businesses and government officials—to effect change across communitie­s so families can achieve economic stability and children can access a brighter future.

As the COVID-19 pandemic persists, many families are experienci­ng increased risk in their housing stability. Kiddie Academy believes in developing a foundation for long term success, and Family Promise’s prevention, shelter, and stabilizat­ion model does just that for families in need by providing critical resources across every step of their journey.

“Kiddie Academy’s initial contributi­on to Family Promise is the foundation for a system-wide fundraisin­g and resource model to help further the nonprofit’s efforts in solving homelessne­ss for families across the country,” added Mike Miller, executive chairman of Kiddie Academy.
