Keep Up with Forever Young
The backbone of Forever Young is parent participation.
Parent participation hours are a term and condition of each enrollment contract. In other words, when you enroll your child at Forever Young, you are not just committing to paying tuition. You also commit a specific number of hours volunteering your time to help the center.
Parent involvement in administration, fundraising and maintenance of Forever Young is an essential part of the continuing success of our daycare center.
Parents provide the center with invaluable labor, knowledge and resources. This helps us defray operating expense.
Parents have the opportunity to directly influence the direction and purpose of Forever Young by their participation.
Parents are expected to spread their volunteer hours over many areas including:
Spreading work hours over these areas assures that the center's high priority needs are met and that everyone is doing their share.
Why is parent participation critical to the success of Forever Young?
Forever Young is run by a Board of Directors who are parents.
There are various committees for the center that oversee things like fundraising and nurturing of staff. These committees are also made up of parents. Without parent participation there will be no program and no daycare center.
Parent participation saves everyone money!
Without the help of parents to clean, repair, and contribute to the general upkeep of our sites, Forever Young will have to increase enrollment fees to pay for services.
Forever Young is a non-profit. That means every penny goes back into the center.
