Would you like to make a positive difference in the life of a child and provide a solid foundation for their future success?
If so, please join LoveLight, Inc. as a co-creator of STARCHILD, a model intergenerational childcare/child development and lifelong learning center in the Kent area. Imagine a “gold star”-rated facility with well-qualified staff, senior citizens (“Golden Treasures”), and university students interacting with children from infancy through age 15.
Featuring:
* Innovative curriculum with developmentally appropriate activities including expressive arts (art, music, drama), fun with language, science exploration, nature study, movement to promote healthy physical, cognitive, and emotional development, stress reduction techniques, and creative play in a nurturing environment
* Nutritious meals and snacks
* Availability of outdoor space to provide fresh air, sunshine, interaction with nature, and play so essential to healthy growth and development
* Educational sessions for parents
The Center will also:
- support the mental, emotional, & physical health of the senior citizens (“Golden Treasures”) who will be sharing their time, talents, & love with the children
- provide a permanent home for LoveLight, a non-profit that has been serving the community since 1995.
- enable Lovelight to expand its programs & services
- provide valuable experience for college students & support businesses in northeast Ohio
DID YOU KNOW?
More than 80% of brain development occurs after a baby is born and 90% of that growth happens by the age of 5.
STARCHILD will provide a solid future success in their lives, including being ready for learning when they start school.
Other anticipated benefits:
* Parents able to engage in training and employment, knowing their children are being well-taken care of
* Job creation, economic support of local merchants and services, professional development opportunities, local employment and tax revenue
* Collaboration with other resources in the area to support a thriving community
We need your help to raise the $ to get the loan to buy the property.
