St. Francis of Assisi Childcare and Preschool hasn't added a story.
Good Day my family and friends,
HI, my name is Megan Klein and I need your help. Yes, you, I need your help. I am doing this campaign to raise money for a childcare program, preschool (ages 3-4) and playground equipment at the St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church. I am currently the Religious Education Director at St. Francis of Assisi and have found a huge need in our area for childcare, preschool and handi-capped accessible playground equipment.
I have started the process of beginning to be state certified for daycare, have begun a pre-school curriculum, started making changes in the church and have had the fire inspector come and make his report. I have started all the hard paper work. Let me tell you it is intense paperwork!! One thing to help with getting this program up and running is having playground equipment. I mean you can not have a daycare/preschool with no playground equipment. :) The church is helping with start up costs with the daycare/preschool program, however raising money for playground equipment is another story. So, this is where you come in.
I am trying to raise money through this campaign process because I want to have a place for all the children in the county or the where every they are visiting from can have a place to go with their family. I want to give options for our families in Montmorency County and surrounding areas.
I am asking for money to build a playground for ALL children. When I say all children, I believe every child with ANY ability should be able to swing, slide and play with their peers and family on a playground. No one should take that away from a child. A child's innocence is one that we should all inspire to have.
I have been getting ideas from playground equipment companies and looking for help in this area too. If someone has a great company that would be willing to help, I am willing to work with them. I have found lots of ideas on-line, but nothing that truly meets my exact dreams and desires for the kids in this community. I know what I want in a playground. I want the ground to wheelchair accessible, from the time you pull in the parking lot to the very last structure on the playground. I want their to be two swings that children in wheelchairs can swing in. I want their to be a shade area for parents, care givers and family to go when their children will not leave the park. I want their to be toddler toys and big kid slides. I want this playground to be a place where people say, "this is what the world is really about." Everyone is welcome. Everyone is invited. Everyone is ready to have fun.
I need your money to make this dream happen. I do not have my own children who are handi-capped, however, I can not imagine being a mom, dad, grandparent, caregiver, etc., and telling my child they can not swing because their is not a swing for them or they can not get out of the car because there isn't enough shade. I want every child in the world to feel welcome here.
Please make a donation towards my project. I am truly grateful for all donations big and small. The children will be eternally grateful and remember this playground for ever and ever. Thank you for taking the time to read my plea and donating money. God Bless you all!!
