Kiddies Northern Preschool is opening its SOAR Program next month to help support low-income families

Kiddies Northern Preschool will be offering a program to support low-income, disadvantaged families looking to enroll their children in their early learning program.

 

Director Lynn Martin says the SOAR program will assist families with transportation to and from the program, provide snacks, and help them apply for financial support.

 

Since the preschool is setting aside a portion of its budget to make this program possible, space for the SOAR program is limited.

 

“Right now, we are limiting it at ten and that is just because we have a limited budget that is just coming from our fundraising and regular operating grants which, as many people know, is not great for early learning and child care programs but it is improving. If we do see a strong interest then we will definitely revisit the budget and do what we can to support even more children.”

 

People interested in learning more can email kiddies@my mts.net

 

Or catch Thompson Today at 12:40 and 5:10 this afternoon.
