Wellness grants
Supporting healthy child care environments
At Quality Care for Children, we partner with early care and education programs across Georgia to provide funding, guidance, and hands-on support that promote healthy environments for children. While we don’t have any open grant applications at the moment, new opportunities are on the horizon for early 2025:
Harvest of the Month Pilot Program – Ten child care centers and family child care learning homes in Dekalb and Gwinnett counties will be selected to implement QCC’s updated Harvest of the Month curriculum. Program participants will incorporate weekly nutrition education activities, receive a toolkit of materials to support curriculum implementation, and monthly deliveries of locally-grown fruits and vegetables from Fresh Harvest to support kids cooking activities and taste tests.
Apply by April 30th at 5:00PM: https://qualitycareforchildren.wufoo.com/forms/z1uin61p1dscqal/. This program is funded by QCC’s USDA Farm to School grant.
Additional Grants Coming Soon – We’re working to offer more opportunities for programs in west Georgia, so stay tuned for announcements!
