How to Give

In order to offer parents the chance to pay sliding scale tuition, Fannie Battle relies on donations to cover 50% of our operating budget. Contributions bridge the gap between what low income parents can afford to pay and the cost of high quality childcare and educational programs. Donations include: gifts to the Candle of Hope Annual Fund; grants from foundations, companies, and government agencies; and fundraising events.
