December, 2005

For over 40 years, since 1965, Weekday Children's Center has provided high quality early education and care to children and their families. We offer one of the only NAEYC- accredited programs in Naperville that provides half-day, full-day, and after-school programs.

Each year we provide services to over 100 children. We know that the education and care we provide can contribute significantly to children's well-being and happy, productive futures.

In the past several years, we have seen requests for financial assistance increase substantially. Many of our enrolled families can not afford the full cost of care, yet desire the same high level of care and education for their children that all families do. We expect to provide over $20,000 worth of child care and preschool scholarships during the 2005-06 school year.

As our mission statement says, "Each child is worthy of love, acceptance, and the support that helps to build a good self-image."

Won't you help us continue to provide early education and care to all children?

Donations to Weekday Children's Center are tax deductible and can be directed to our Scholarship Fund or general operations.

Thank you for putting children first as you plan your holiday giving.

Sincerely,

Weekday Children's Center Board of Directors
